Course Synopsis
The Project/Programme Management Office (PMO) is
one of the fastest growing concepts in project
management today, as it is key to effective
implementation of project management across the
organisation. Effective PMOs come in varying shapes
and sizes, from simple support offices to full centres of
excellence.
Learn to develop the framework for a successful
implementation and learn to anticipate the answers as
well as the questions associated with the creation of a
PMO, from benefits and barriers to alignment with
strategic business objectives.
In a highly interactive classroom environment, you will
learn a common frame of reference to project
management and related PMO concepts and activities.
Review the full range of potential PMO functions and
learn how to identify which match your own
organisational needs. Discuss your experiences and
concerns in context with industry practices as you
develop your own plan.
This course is a must for experienced project managers
and senior managers who have recognised the need to
obtain the knowledge and skills to plan and implement
the appropriate PMO for their own organisation.
