Diploma in Project Management Course
If you are interested in Project Management or work in the area you will know that today’s enterprise is almost always in “project mode”, delivering organisational change, new systems, technologies, designs or products. These are in response to fast-moving strategies, technologies, regulations, competition or other challenges. Without effective management of projects schedules slip, costs overrun, quality suffers and risks loom over the entire endeavour.
