Skill Courses
- Project Work Project Administration Essentials Plans are carried out one action at a time. When actions have no owner, no date or no follow-up, they go quiet, and quiet actions become late milestones. Included in NIBS Plus View course
- Project Work Project Scheduling & Milestones A schedule answers the question every sponsor asks: "when?". A good one also answers "what decides that date?" and "what happens if this slips?". Included in NIBS Plus View course
- Project Work Project Risk & Issue Management Every project meets trouble. The difference between a project that recovers and one that fails is usually how early the trouble was seen and how clearly it was put in front of the person who could act. Included in NIBS Plus View course
