Course
Details
The courses in the program are customized for your
organization and produce immediate results.
Participants put
theory into practice by bringing their work product to class.
PM
PLAYBOOK® is a series of 11 courses sequenced to create a standardized
system that embeds PM best practices in your organization.
The entire PM PLAYBOOK® Series of courses can be completed in one year.
We recommend one class per month so students have time to practice their new
PM Skills and bring their work related issues to the next class.
The program is designed for managers in all fields and professions including IT, Marketing, Operations, Sales and Engineering.
The PM PLAYBOOK® Series of courses use proven Project
Management methodologies, techniques and tools that are aligned with the
PMBOK® Guide - Third Edition.
Students walk away with a customized set of skills they will use to run
their projects and a PM resource library
to reference and draw on in the future.
We are a Project
Management Institute Registered Education Providers (PMI R.E.P.),
International Association of Continuing Education and Training (IACET)
Certified, and we are on the GSA list.
Class Scheduling
For the in-house courses, we
recommend holding one class per month so the students have time to practice
their new PM Skills and bring their work related issues to the next class. For
companies with more than 10 students per class, we hold the same course back to
back (if you have 20 students, we do two classes back to back of 10 students
each). We also recommend the same students stay together in the same group if
you have multiple sessions going. We can teach this program at our training
centers.
Upon receipt of payment, all students are registered through Cheetah’s Online
Course Management system and have access to the online course material and
online resources during the program. They can also access the online material
after the course and get additional copies of their course completion
certificates.
Results Guarantee
We guarantee that students who attend at least 95%
of the PM PLAYBOOK®
Series courses will improve their
Project Management Performance. This is demonstrated by their improved PAT's PM Scorecard™
rating. If a
student does not improve their PM Performance rating after completing the PM
PLAYBOOK®
Series of courses, they can take any of the courses again at no cost the next
time it is offered in their area or at their organization.
