Course Description
Applied project management and fun team simulation exercises serve as a highly efficient learning tool in translating Project Management theory and best practices into real-life applications and know-how.
Through this hands-on and fun project management course, participants will systematically experience the full project life cycle, from initiation to completion phase.
Using miniature LEGO® sets, participants will work in teams and develop key project management plans and documents, by leveraging acquired knowledge, applying essential tools and techniques to accurately translate requirements into successful project deliverables.
Using a combination of lecture, discussion, and team simulation exercises, participants will learn how a project is planned, managed and closed using the tools and techniques aligned with the best practices outlined in the Project Management Institute’s (PMI)® Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide).
