Project Management

Noah must have managed one of the earliest recorded projects in the Bible – the building of the ark. He may not have completed it to budget, but he certainly had to finish it by a specified time – before the flood, and it must have met his performance criteria, as it successfully accommodated a pair of all the animals. Project Management becomes the planning, monitoring and control of all aspects of a project and the motivation of all those involved in it, in order to achieve the project objectives within agreed criteria of time, cost and performance. This module examines the importance of effective skills and knowledge needed in project management.
