Project management, as a professional discipline, provides such principles, methods and tools that may be incorporated in public sector organisations that aim at working under a shared language, system and mindset according to a result-oriented logic. The benefits of incorporating project management skills and methods into public sector organisations include efficiency in the use of public resources, effectiveness in achieving objectives and improvement of the relationship and engagement with stakeholders and end users of the delivered public services.
This online course will help you integrate project management best practices in your daily work.
Specifically, this course will enhance your ability to design and implement (including monitoring and control) your EU-funded projects. You will learn all this in line with the European Commission best practices as reflected in recently published guidelines.
It will focus on the importance of not reinventing the wheel and using the already available and tested best practices in project management as a professional discipline that can be learned and used by everyone based on solid principles and standardised practices.
You will learn how to:
understand the basic principles and concepts of project management;
share a common language and mindset on project management;
use tools for improving project management practice.
Course methodology/highlights
The course will be led by experts who have decades of research and practical experience in project management of EU-funded projects. The course delivery will combine interactive presentations showcasing practical examples and tools, quick polls to consolidate concepts and group exercises.
