Content and overview

I designed this course to be easily understood and applied by absolute beginners. Each section starts with a "What to look forward to and expected outcomes" lecture to get you up to speed right away.

A total of 6 sections with 20 lectures filled with practical tips and tools, with quizzes at the end of each section to help you grasp the key concepts. The content is aligned with the Project Management Body of Knowledge, known as the PMBOK, an accepted industry standard from the Project Management Institute (PMI).

The course format makes provision for easy consumption through listening as audios, as well as downloads for summary and increased comprehension of new concepts and tools. Through-out the online learning process, you will receive support from the Trainer, Linky Merwe.

You will walk away with a solid toolbox of skills and knowledge that you can use to succeed in your new project management role.

You will be able to communicate more clearly, to do planning, to lead the team and to manage conflicts. You will understand your own strengths and weaknesses better and adjust your development plan accordingly.
