Course Description:

'' Most organizations have a long list of ongoing projects in various stages of completion at any given time. Providing all of these diverse projects with the right resources and the proper attention can be a problem. Companies can often benefit from implementing a clearly defined and well-managed Program Management Office.



This course will explore the three key themes of a successful program management office: benefits management, program stakeholder management, and program governance. It will present the program management organization, life cycle and principal PM process groups. Course material will also include the steps for implementing a PMO in your organization, as well as some common pitfalls to be avoided.



Class instruction will be supplemented with team exercises. Participants are encouraged to bring their own PMO related questions and issues to the class for discussion.





Course content is based upon “The Standard for Program Management�published by the Project Management Institute in the spring of 2006.



Intended Audience:

Project managers, program managers, portfolio managers, executive sponsors, and key project team members.



Prerequisites:

Participants should have completed the Introduction to Project Management or a similar introductory course.



Student Responsibilities:

In order for a class to be successful, all students should share the same general level of knowledge and experience. If a participant does not demonstrate these, the CITI instructor will take the necessary steps either to prepare the participant or place him/her in a more appropriate course. This policy is intended to maintain the high level of quality that you have come to expect from CITI.
