Why Choose this Training Course?
Time and Money are two of the most valuable assets in organizational settings and are crucial success factors for projects. Both are often constrained by strict limits and are irreplaceable once spent. This Certified Planning and Scheduling Professional training course focuses on effectively managing these resources while balancing other critical factors such as quality, resources, and risk.
