Why Choose this Training Course?

Portfolio management provides an opportunity for a governing body to make decisions that control or influence the direction of a group of projects, programs, and on-going work as they work to achieve specific outcomes. Portfolio management is important to help selecting the “right” project mix, while program and project management help managing them in a “right” way. This is gaining more importance in the Post-COVID era to properly respond to the changing world: new risks, new approaches, new priorities, and new requirement for a flexible, yet effective governance.

This Building, Planning and Managing Post-COVID Project Portfolios training course will demonstrate with practical examples how an organization can use the processes and tools needed to identify, select, prioritize, govern, allocate resources, monitor, and report the status and performance of the project portfolio, and their relative alignment with, organizational objectives.
