The course employs Learning Tree’s RealityPlus learning methodology in which an experienced instructor/facilitator leads the class through an immersive, multi-media enhanced case study for the purpose of gaining practical experience in applying PMBOK Guide best practices to projects.

• Successfully manage projects with the most relevant principles of the PMBOK Guide – Third Edition
• Complete the key tasks necessary to get a project authorized and underway
• Perform the platforming tasks required to effectively manage a project
• Monitor, analyze, predict, act and report on the daily activities of a project

The Project Management Book of Knowledge (PMBOK) Guide in Practice: Applying the Principles to Your Projects is valuable for project managers, project teams and others who want to deliver projects using the PMBOK Guide-based approach.
