This course is designed to introduce students of various skill and knowledge levels to the dynamic and demanding world of project management. The course covers both theory and in-practice of the new hybrid model of managing projects, which is a cross between the traditional (predictive) model and the Agile (adaptive) model of managing projects.
The course content has been updated to align with the latest A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) - Seventh Edition and other appropriate PMI® global standards.
