Course Description:

'' This class provides a comprehensive introduction to project management concepts. (It also covers the educational objectives for IT Project + certification.) This is the course to take for IT Professionals who can only take a single course in project management. Whereas the course content and presentation are consistent with the Project Management Body of Knowledge (or "PMBOK" established by the Project Management Institute), this course does not focus on the PMBOK nor the Project Management Professional (PMP) certification. However, it addresses those same concepts within the unique context of today’s challenging IT projects. This course also qualifies as 35 PDU credits.
