About this course

Every organisation runs projects — building roads, launching apps, running elections, opening branches, organising weddings — and project managers are trusted to make them succeed. It's a career open to graduates from any background, and a skill that makes anyone better at their job. This course covers the full picture: the project life cycle, scope and the work breakdown structure, schedules and Gantt charts, budgets, risk management, stakeholder communication, Agile and Scrum, and the tools teams use (Trello and Jira). It draws on Google's Project Management Certificate team, a complete two-hour walkthrough of the Google certificate by David McLachlan, the full Scrum Guide and the PMBOK Guide. You'll finish by planning a real project from charter to closure — a portfolio piece for interviews. About 8 hours of video plus practice.
