We believe that the most effective project management training is the one that closely aligns with your specific work environment. That's why we offer a unique solution designed to help you develop your own internal project management training program. Our extensive training material covers every aspect of project management, and we have the flexibility to customize it to reflect your internal processes and terminology. By integrating your own terminology, tools and methodologies into our materials, we ensure a seamless learning experience that directly relates to what you do.
Here's how it works: we take our comprehensive content and adapt it to match your specific requirements. We can then record the training module and incorporate your branding, making it a valuable asset exclusive to your organisation. All this for a simple one-time fee, often more cost-effective than sending multiple staff members to external courses, and you gain access to the training materials indefinitely.
If desired, we can even develop a process for observing and measuring behavioral changes resulting from the training. This tailored training solution is not only beneficial for onboarding new team members but also serves as a valuable reminder for existing staff, reinforcing your organization's unique project management approach.
We offer the following modules which can be assembled and customised to suit your training needs:
