It will emphasize awareness of project risk management to minimize project cost/schedule overruns & improve project execution. Project management is all about the management of risks; the ability to seize opportunities, minimize threats and to optimize results.

By identifying the warning signs to these as early as possible in the project timely corrective action can be taken to minimize or mitigate the impact Discussions of case studies and exercises emphasizing the learning across the five process groups and the professional responsibility domain. The training seminar is split into two modules: MODULE I - The Project Management Professional (PMP ) Examination Preparatory Course MODULE II - Project Risk Management & Compliance Each module is structured and can be taken as a stand-alone course; however, delegates will maximise their benefits by taking Module 1 and 2 back-to-back as a two-week training seminar.
