Basics of Project Management

Basics of Project Management
6 chapters | ~2 hours

A complete, practical foundation in project management for beginners and team members stepping up to lead. You will learn what a project is and who does what, master the triangle of scope, time and cost, follow a project through initiation, planning, execution and closure, and put the essential tools to work: the Work Breakdown Structure, Gantt and PERT charts and the Critical Path Method. The course closes with a clear comparison of Waterfall and Agile and an introduction to Scrum and Kanban, all illustrated with worked examples such as taking a new website from kickoff to launch.
