Course Overview

While operational activities come with their own risks and uncertainties, projects face an even broader spectrum of potential uncertainties that can significantly influence their success—whether positively or negatively. This Project Appraisal & Analysis training course delves into various tools and techniques designed to address and manage these uncertainties throughout the project's content, schedule, finances, and resources. The course emphasizes a structured approach to identifying, analyzing, and managing risks, threats, and opportunities. This approach is grounded in the six Risk Management processes outlined in the PMBOK® Guide, ensuring you have a comprehensive framework to navigate and mitigate project uncertainties effectively.
