Project Scope and Risk Management

About this course:

I.T. Projects are some of the riskiest projects executed today.  Defining "what you really need to do" is the toughest part of any project.  That is why the project charter and scope statement are so important.  Together, they set the tone for the entire project.  IT experiences less than 18% success rate on meeting the original scope of a project.  This course provides the basics for defining and managing the scope of an IT project and minimizing the risks associated with it.  Through discussion, workshops and real world examples, participants learn how to create the tools they will need to manage projects effectively and implement strategies to minimize project risk.

Learn how to:

  Properly define a project including project charter, scope definition, objectives and deliverables

  Manage scope creep and scope changes throughout the project

  Easily manage risk using the risk register
  Develop scope change management procedures

  Identify risk components and triggers

  Develop risk responses

  Understand the impact of risk to customers and develop methods to identify their risk tolerance
