This online short course provides students with an introduction to project management. Organisations and employers are increasingly realising the benefits of those with project management skills outwith their official ‘project managers’ roles, due to this surge in demand we have created this course to provide students with the skills necessary to fill this market demand.

The course costs £250.

This course fee includes access to MyPlace our online learning platform, the course material for one year and a digital certificate of completion if you pass the final course test.

Duration

We would recommend that this online course provides 4 weeks of learning material, at 10 hours a week.

The benefit of online learning is you can progress through the educational material at your own pace, and complete the course quicker or slower than the average 4 weeks. You will also gain access to the course material for a full year, so that you can refer back to your notes or material after completing the course.

This course will be launching in 2021, and once it has launched the course will be available for students to start flexibly throughout the year.
