Project Management Training
PRACTICAL PM INTRODUCTION
PROJECT MANAGEMENT TRAINING
PRACTICAL INTRODUCTION TO
PROJECT MANAGEMENT
START YOUR PROFESSIONAL PROJECT MANAGEMENT CAREER NOW !
A 8 to 16 hrs short running project management training that provides you with a
practical overview of the project management profession. Obtain useful and proven
techniques to start managing projects like a pro!
STYLISH & SUPPORTING MATERIAL
Our material supporting the project management learning experiences is recently
adapted to the current norms for educational material and has a fresh and dynamic
appearance, in line with modern pedagogic concepts. The material is very visual to
make concepts stick better (1 image says more than 1,000 words!).
STORY TELLING
An important but often under-used pedagogical technique is “story-telling”. It is
however proven that people become more attentive when (real-life experience) stories
are shared rather than hearing theoretical concepts being explained. Our learning
experiences are full of stories which are directly taken from real project experiences.
DIVERSIFIED APPROACH
Our learning experiences do not make use of a linear and undiversified approach
where solely “ex-cathedra” lecturing is provided. The time of the learning experiences
is on average spread as follows: 40% exercises, 25% knowledge sharing amongst
participants, 20% story telling and 15% introduction of theoretical concepts.
AGILE LEARNING
Our coach always implements the “Agile” learning principle. This implies that, to a
certain extent and when relevant, the training scenario can be modified -“à la
minute”- to the specific needs, concerns and questions of the participants. As such,
the learning experience is continuously tailored to the participants, making the
content as relevant as possible.
NO SINGLE DULL MOMENT
By making use of different multimedia, such as video clips, but also the use of polling
software to organize group discussion as well as participative presentations, there is
no room for a single dull moment or boredom. The engagement of the participants
is crucial for a successful learning and is therefore an attention point for our coaches.
MULTIPLE DAY FORMATS
When a learning experience stretches over multiple days, it can be organized in a
consecutive set of days. However, in order not to burden the participants agenda, we
always suggest to spread it in an one day per week or month sequence. Our
elearning formats are always organized as spreaded two-hour sessions.
LECTURING
Classroom format with a project managament coach that is actively present to
continuously support the participants. At the choice of the client, all learning
experiences can be delivered in English or Dutch. Dutch, English, French and German
are also supported when a participant feels more comfortable to interact in those
languages.
TRAINING MATERIAL
All our materials are created in English and delivered digitally. Participants will receive
the used presentation material in PDF format on a personal 16 GB USB stick, also
containing additional project management reference materials.
PROJECT MANAGEMENT GOODIES
All participants will receive stationary which they can take away home. They will also
receive a GAPS branded wearable as well as a personal certificate to prove their
attendance.
