After this training you can lead an IT project through every phase: you clarify the brief, align schedule and resources, keep track of risks and changes, and close the project properly. You also get to know the content of the PK0-005 exam and its question types. The course suits you if you work in IT and coordinate your first projects, or will soon be responsible for them, and do not yet need a more extensive project management certification.
What you’ll take away.
- Take an IT project from initiation through to closure in a structured way
- Record and assess risks, changes and dependencies
