Why Choose this Training Course?

Is your organization under pressure from an ever-growing list of conflicting demands and constantly changing priorities?

There is not much point in having your teams working hard if they are not working hard on “the correct objectives”. Establishing value and prioritizing work to achieve that value is key to success in an increasingly volatile business environment. Establishing the value that your organization needs to produce and then linking that value to strategies that are aligned to delivery mechanisms such as programmes and projects is vital to achieving business success. That is what this training course is about - presenting standard practices for managing portfolios of work incorporating effective programme and project governance.

This COPEX training course will support you to develop practices and techniques to prioritize initiatives, coordinate project dependencies and allocate resources in order to realize targeted benefits.
