As before, we will offer examinations in person and online.

First the scope: Virtually every IT project brings with it changes to other areas of the organization. The scenarios can be used to manage organizational projects, service procurement and IT development projects with the same basic elements.

Then the depth: The modules are fully described with roles, activities and outcomes. The "Project steering" and "Project management" modules are particularly well integrated.

Continuing to focus on what matters: An experienced project manager is able to very quickly choose exactly the components in exactly the form that are expedient for a specific project.

Last but not least: The documentation online and the support with templates are exemplary, save time and money and therefore offer major added value.
