The sample exams, quizzes and additional learning materials in this bundle aim to give you the best shot at passing the official exams on your first attempt and gaining the internationally recognised AgilePM Foundation and PRINCE2 Foundation certifications.
An IT Project Manager is responsible for planning, managing and assigning tasks to team members with the goal of achieving the objectives of the organisation that are related to its IT services or infrastructure. An IT Project Manager must be prepared to oversee every aspect of the delivery of the software and business systems projects that an organisation may require.
This online training bundle includes the AgilePM Foundation course which will introduce you to the concepts commonly used to manage projects in an IT environment, while PRINCE2 Foundation presents a compatible set of principles that guide you in managing projects flexibly and ensuring that the needs of the project are met.
Description
An IT Project Manager is an individual who can benefit from a wide knowledge-base of techniques and skills. This course aims to outfit you with all you need to know in order to manage projects in an IT environment.
The AgilePM approach tackles projects incrementally, making it easier to spot any deviations from the plan or any issues with the project before they pose a real threat to the outcome. AgilePM recommends scheduled revision points during the project which ensures that the project can be closely monitored as it progresses.
