Who Is This Programme For?

Whether you’re a Project Manager in title or you manage projects as part of your role, then this programme is the perfect fit for you.

This programme is ideal for those who have had little to no formal project management training in the past and those who have some practical project management experience in role and are looking to expand their knowledge and skillset through a comprehensive programme.

Our programmes are completely flexible in terms of delivery with minimum numbers of 1!

We can run this as an internal in-house training programme for a cohort or we can use our eco-delivery method all through virtual training and online coaching enabling us to run the programme on a personalised, individual basis.

My learner is growing in confidence all the time and is utilising the skills he is learning in daily operations and strategic management decisions. Not only is the project-based work involved in the programme helping him to meet our business needs, but it’s resulted in a significant increase in his profile across the group – particularly at senior and board level.
