Dear Friends,
We know you may not be able to get a full certificate in project management, but this one course will give you all the skills you need to plan, schedule, and control projects of any size or kind.
Now is actually a good time for learning.
The Lewis Institute has been providing a certificate in Project Management for NC State University for 25 years, and in 2016 it was ranked 3rd in the United States for value. We're proud of that and proud of our record of turning out some world-class project managers for 40 years.
Project Management: Tools, Principles, Practices provides you with the skills you need to manage projects in this turbulent world!
If you never take another course on project management, this one will still stand as your baseline, providing you with the essential tools, skills, and methods you need to manage projects (and apply the same approach to managing a department or an entire company).
This course is now $2995 at a major university. I'm offering it for $998, saving you a ton of money!
Jim Wrote THE Book on PM!
Since 1991 Jim's book has been considered by many to be the Bible on project management. It was written based on Jim's 15 years experience managing projects, and so it is a very practical, hands-on guide to being successful in this field. And the course we provide is based on the book
Academics have their place, but when you're under the gun to bring your projects in on time, on budget, at high quality, with limited resources, you need guidance from someone who has been in the trenches! That's what this course delivers.
George Hollins, now sadly deceased, saved over $5,000,000 in change orders at the University of Iowa by applying Jim's Lewis Method® to his construction projects. Other organizations have had similar results.
Most courses on project management focus only on schedules, work breakdown structures, and earned value analysis--that is, the tools--and neglect the most important element in the success of a project. The people! This is so important that Jim trademarked the expression projects are people® and builds into his Lewis Method the common issues you experience with people in a project.
This course leads you through a simple hands-on project step-by-step, so that you can apply the method to your own projects. This is a tried-and-proven method that will help you hit the ground running when you complete the course.
This is one investment that will pay huge dividends over your lifetime!
A lot of people look at the expense of learning project management and think it is excessively high. But what you gain from this program will pay for itself in many ways. For example, most projects waste about 30 cents of every dollar spent due to poor execution. If you have a $100,000 project budget, that means you may waste up to $30,000 dollars due to management missteps. By taking this course, if you can cut that loss even 3%, you will have paid for the training.
Don't be fooled by the el-cheapo courses. A $149 seminar that lasts 6 hours and covers 36 bullet points will not make a project manager of you. In one of my live seminars a lady told me during the morning break that she had learned more already than she got from the entire one-day program. You do indeed get what you pay for.
Following are some of the major things you will learn in this course.
How to use the tools of project management. There can be no question about the importance of the tools and this course covers all the mandatory ones.
Unless people use them correctly, the tools are not helpful. That's why we leave no stone unturned, covering the main issues you find in dealing with people in projects--including stakeholders, a major concern.
Project simulation helps you internalize the skills. Unless you apply the skills during class, you may find when you get back to work that you missed something. That's why we do a practice project.
Hit-and-run training is nearly useless. I mentor you during and for a limited time following the class, sharing my experience with you so that you get the benefit of what I've learned the hard way. Hopefully it will be easier for you.
Class begins February 7! Register by 1, 2023!
