Looking After and Leading the Team

The Advanced Project Management: Monitoring, Evaluation and Performance Control training course begins with the principles of project management, the project life cycle and the organisational context in which projects are selected and governed. It then develops the planning foundations required for effective oversight, covering project objectives, stakeholder considerations, scope definition and work breakdown structures. The agenda progresses into scheduling, resource and cost planning, establishing the baselines against which implementation and overall project performance can subsequently be monitored.

The later agenda concentrates on monitoring project execution through performance measures, progress information and comparisons between planned and actual results. It addresses the analysis of schedule and cost performance, together with forecasting, reporting and the management of variances, risks, issues and changes. The course then moves into project evaluation, including the assessment and communication of performance, before concluding with control and close-out considerations, bringing together the processes used to review results and maintain oversight throughout the project life cycle.
