The management of portfolios, programs and projects is the management of the lifeblood of many organizations. To say that this is an important role in any organization is a substantial understatement. Poorly conceived and/or managed programs have doomed many companies. PMI®’s new standard provides the Themes of Program Management, the Program Management Lifecycle and Program Management Process Groups that provide a structure and checkpoints to help ensure success. The workshop will prepare you for the exam by giving you hands-on practice in developing several key program deliverables and providing a simulated test for extra practice.
