Workshop 2 - Project management training

Every successful program or project is based on great design and loads of planning and the planning of a project takes focus and creativity. So how does one design a project that is successful, on time, on budget and achieves all of the goals set? It’s a big ask when there are limited resources.

This workshop will assist committees to avoid common project plan faults and maximise resources for a better chance of success. It will also help those who apply for grants to have a solid base for including in grant applications, so funders can see everything is ready to go.

Topics include:

• Defining the project and its benefit to the community
• Creating the project or program plan
• Assessing risk in new programs and determine their viability
• Identifying program opportunity risks
• Building program budgets
• Utilising project management tools
• Understanding the role of evaluations and its importance when managing a project

Workshop details:
