Time is under pressure and so are budgets. But you still need projects and so you don't waste time and money, you still need trained project managers. Our answer to this essential training is ...

learn in a day | projects

This powerful course runs in your own organisation in a single day from 9 am to 5 pm and covers the basics of project management. But unlike many project management courses it isn't all talk about what you should do. This course is focused on 'how' to do it.

It's powerful
It's practical
It's effective

the 80:20 principle

The Pareto Principle - 80:20 - says that you get 80% of the benefit from 20% of the effort. You spend the remaining 80% of the effort to gain the last 20% of the benefit.

Our one day course gives you that 80% of the benefit by covering the essentials.
We've worked hard to isolate what's really important, but without cutting down on the practicality.

Fast learning

You will learn the essentials of project set up, planning and control during the course of the day. The course is interactive and practical - it's not just talk. The day is geared to different learning styles so you will be able to absorb the content whether you learn best by listening, by seeing images and diagrams or when you put pen to paper to actually try it. Then to reinforce the material so you really lock it in, there's a one hour module to do the following day with questions and a couple more practical exercicses.

Just one day - but without sacrificing quality. Nick Graham, who delivers the course, has received constant praise for the quality and practicality of his training - as you'd expect from the author of a best selling 'Dummies' book. Here are one or two comments about Nick's courses in project management and project methods training.

"I rarely use the term excellent, but I have been really impresssed by this course. It has enthused me, inspired me and educated me" Programme Manager, British Aerospace

"Brilliant" "Above excellent" "Very professional"

Helping the training budget

Most training budgets are under pressure. We help in two dimensions.

DPMdimensions

We've reduced the time to just one day. That lowers the cost of the course, but also reduces the time your staff are out of the office. But that's not all. With careful, professional design, we've also increased the capacity of the course to 25 people from the more usual 12. That makes 'learn in a day | projects' exceptional value for money and a really good investment of the training budget.

Costs

This high impact course is run on your own premises and the cost per person will depend on the number attending. The more people, up to the maximum of 25, the cheaper the per capita cost.

The typical cost if you have 15 people would be just £125 + VAT per person (event total £1,875 + VAT).
If you have 25 people to train, the amount falls to just £85 + VAT per person (event total £2,125 + VAT).

And those prices include everything including a work book for each person.
