Course Description

The course imparts practical knowledge of the skills and techniques used to manage information systems projects. The success of many organisations depends on their ability to harness the power of information technology, but many information systems implemented by organisations either fail completely or do not live up to their potential.

Organisations are recognising that it is many of the “behind the scenes” activities that result in a successful information system and are investing in project managers and their education. Project managers need many skills above and beyond the technical skills required to implement information systems.

Management of time, scope and cost are vital, as are the “soft” skills of managing the team and communicating with the stakeholders.
