PM Practitioner Boot Camp

ABSTRACT

This 9-day program, delivered one week a month over three months, provides practical application of project management disciplines. A cohort of 20 students begins the program by assessing their knowledge of project management to capture a learning baseline. At the end of each week, students are challenged to apply new concepts through on-the-job assignments. Week 1 concentrates on solidifying PMI® concepts and disciplines as well as examining individual learning and communication styles. Each subsequent week then begins with a meaningful lessons learned dialogue about the assignment value and learning. Topics become more advanced throughout the program, concluding with formal business case presentations. There is an option to include company-specific scenarios, methods, templates and techniques.
