Project Management 1

On the course you will work on:

• Understanding the working method of the project
• Applying methods for managing and ensuring progress
• Working with the project triangle (time, resources, content)
• Developing stakeholder analysis
• Applying the project toolbox
• Developing a business case
• Formulating objective(s)
• Organising and planning your work

What is a project?

A project is a one-time task that is limited in time, content (deliveries) and resources and that has its own project organisation. The number of these kinds of tasks is increasing.

The project’s working method puts great demands on the project manager and the project group – demands that you will find easier to meet if you acquire the tools that Project Management 1 provides you with.

An IPMA-registered programme

Mannaz Project Management Programme is IPMA®-registered in Denmark.

Who takes part?

Project managers or upcoming project managers who want to get an overview of a project, its content and method. Perhaps you are about to start a specific project or face cross-disciplinary problems related to change within the organisation and its products/services. Even though you have worked with projects for a few years, there is still much to be learnt from this course. Project Management 1 is directed at industries, professional groups and organisations.

What kind of digital learning does the course consist of?

Regardless of whether you participate in the virtual or physical version of the course, you will complete a pre-test prior to the course.  This test informs you about which of Mannaz’s digital learning modules you should complete as preparation. You must also fill out a DiSC-profile online.

Once you’ve completed the selected e-learning modules, you’ll again complete a post-test, which allows the instructors to target your needs and your level of competence as accurately as possible. It is expected that you’ll spend ½ -1 day on preparing for the course.

Virtual course

The content of the virtual course corresponds to the content of the physical course. It’s just the format and the practical implementation that differs.

The course consists of a virtual kick-off session, 3 virtual course days, and a final 2-hour session with follow-up and exam questions, which takes place approximately 1 month after the course. All sessions are held in Zoom or Teams.

At Mannaz, we have extensive experience with virtual learning, and the course is designed to ensure that you get the maximum benefit. We can guarantee that you’ll receive the same benefit as you would have on a physical course.

The course is composed of short presentations, interactive group work in virtual breakout rooms, discussions in the “virtual plenum”, several short breaks, and a long lunch break. We then focus on the effect of your learning in the follow-up session.
