Project Controls – A Definition
The era of the big shot project manager might be over. Project management has evolved into such a multidimensional profession, that it is no longer realistic to expect a single person to show excellence in all facets of project management. Different aspects of project management require a different skill set.
The following topics are covered in this training:
- What types of activities are known;
- What type of relationships can be used;
- How does the calculation of a network take place;
- What is slack and what slack do we know;
- What is the critical path and what are critical activities;
- Resource load and load leveling;
- Practical examples and tips of good network planning and the progress cycle.
