MSP™ Programme Management - Advanced Practitioner

Aims

This workshop is aimed at delegates who have already passed the 2007 MSP Foundation Practitioner exams. Delegates will be provided with pre-course material that includes the study (MSP Care) for the Advanced Practitioner Exam. Pre-course preperation is an essential element of this event, as the two-day workshop will build on the delegates preperation.

Why is Managing Successful Programmes important?

Programmes are becoming increasingly important as a management tool for integrating activities into a cohesive unit of focused effort and delivery. Programmes are set up to implement change in parts of an organisation, in the whole organisation, or across a group of organisations.

The drivers for change may be internal, such as improving the quality of products, or external such as government policy. Programme Management begins with the alignment of these drivers into a set of business objectives and an overall vision of the programme. It covers the detailed definition of the programme, the management of the project portfolio, through to the delivered realisation of measurable business benefits.
