People in any organization are occasionally asked to take on additional tasks that require planning and management to achieve the desired objective. This course will provide the non-project manager with a basic project management framework
to support the successful planning, execution, and management of any project. Projects may be special one-time events or occasional activities that require a plan to define and achieve specific objectives that support an organization’s mission.
Parsons pants will be asked to identify a potential project from their institutional context to gain hands-on experience with planning a project during the course. Course materials and examples will be presented such that AACRAO members will be
able to relate them to their individual context (registrar, admissions, and enrollment management functions).
Duration: The course will require participants to engage in learning activities over a two-week period. The total estimated time
commitment for participants is 20 hours.
Topics covered in the course:
- What is a project?
- Project management overview
- How to initiate your project
