Full Seminar Description

You’ll propose, plan, and execute a full-scale project under typical organizational constraints. Follow your project through the life cycle, resolving issues of performance, scheduling, and control as you address questions of leadership and management. Each team member will take a turn as project manager, defining objectives and performing tasks and producing deliverables critical to the project’s success.

As a course participant, you'll receive a complimentary copy of ESI's Project Management Tools CD for your use following the classroom experience.

Confirm your mastery of the core principles of project management in this experiential course and gain the hands-on confidence to practice new skills in your organization.

Reminder: This advanced, practice-based course caps the ESI Project Management curriculum and is intended for experienced project managers. Because it pulls together competencies gained in the other core project management courses, participants should complete at least four other core courses before registering for Project Management Applications

Reminder: Participants taking this course should not take Project Management Applications in Information Technology.

Recommendation: We recommend bringing a laptop computer for use in class.
