Expected Outcomes

The outcome of the day will be a solid understanding of the techniques used to advance a project from its concept to a workable timing plan. 

The course will give reasoning as well as process to the techniques covered.  The aim of this is to enable users to gauge the levels of planning needed for each project themselves, rather than a set method for every project. 

This will prepare the delegate with skills needed to carry out, value and support the early stages of projects.
