Scope of This Training Series:

 

There are three major levels of Project Management training:

 

          The sheer variety of types of projects, organizational settings and environmental factors means initial exposure is likely to lead some to seek additional training and “lab work” with a professional, with further training and explorations of how to best apply to the projects and situations one encounters.  To effectively manage a project, training usually requires experience to fully grasp the principles.  Well organized and executed projects also lay the foundations for future successful cooperative relationships and initiatives. 

 

         This introduction provides the attendee with a basic understanding and exposure to traditional project management techniques and new developments.  The goal is to familiarize the user not only with basic project management but to also lay a foundation for future training for those who would like to do a deeper dive.  Later sessions will include presentations by special guest speakers in education, technology, and librarianship to further explore how they have implemented project management principles in different settings, including for technology projects and in academic libraries.    

 

Course Moderator/Instructor:  Maureen Adamson, Principal, Adamson & Associates
