This course will assist the Practicing Project
Manager understand and utilize the processes contained
in the PMBOK© to become more effective in the managing
of project risks and minimizing their impact on the
successful outcome of the project.
The workshop will take the theoretical and practical
information contained in the PMBOK©, the practical of
real life examples of risks encountered in actual
projects, to develop an understanding that will increase
the overall knowledge of the Project Manager. By using a
real life project as the workshop test case it will
allow the attendees to work collectively to identify the
Risk items and to develop usable mitigation plans that
could be utilized to minimize the impact of the
identified risk.
The workshop will take the Risk Management processes as
identified in the PMBOK® and dissect it into PMBOK
Process groups: Risk Management planning, Risk
Identification, Risk Analysis, Risk Response planning,
Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis, Risk Monitoring
and Control processes. In addition the tools that will
assist the Project Manager in ensuring the project risks
are mitigated or exploited to increase the success of
the overall project will be discussed.
This workshop will take an actual real-life project that
would be encountered in a common Telecommunications
Network Infrastructure deployment project as the class
case study. By utilizing a case study it will allow the
workshop attendees to use their understanding of the
presented materials as well as input from the other
attendees to analyze the impacts and to develop a risk
mitigation plan for the identified risks.
