Enjoy BIG Savings with our Effective Planning and Scheduling Online Bundle, 2 Certificate Courses
1. Effective Planning and Scheduling
2. Strategic Planning
1. Effective Planning and Scheduling: Learn How To Use Planning And Scheduling Tools
Creating an accurate schedule is more of an art than a science. However, there are some tools and techniques that you can use to be as precise as possible. This course will introduce you to the most commonly used tools and show you how to apply them to everyday scenarios. We recommend that you complete “Intermediate Project Management” before beginning this course.
This course will teach you how to use a variety of planning and scheduling tools, including the work breakdown structure, network diagrams, program evaluation and review technique (PERT), and Gantt charts. You will also learn how to properly estimate time, schedule resources, identify task dependencies, manage risks, communicate your schedule, and keep the schedule updated.
2. Strategic Planning: Learn How To Strategize A Solid Plan For Your Business
A solid strategic plan is essential for business success. It should outline your values, mission, vision, strategy, and your plan for getting there.
If you and the people who work with you don’t understand where the company is going, they may all develop their own priorities and actually prevent you from getting where you need to be. Part of getting everyone on board is creating a strategic plan complete with the organization’s values, vision, and mission. Then, there’s the challenge of bringing these principles to life in a meaningful way that people can relate to. This course will help you describe what you want to do and get people where you want to go.
A good strategic plan describes what the owners want the business to do and how to get there. This course will help you identify all the pieces of a strategic plan and how to put them together to create something meaningful.
