Project Failure and Recovery
How often have we seen projects fail? When this happens, organisations are often left with wasted expenditure, reduced profit, and tarnished reputation. Although it happens far too often, failure can be avoided and failing projects can be recovered. This course aims to give the student an insight into how and why projects fail, and to provide tools to enable effective project recovery. It is suitable for working project managers who need to recover a project, business personnel seeking to avoid project failure and also support staff (e.g. audit teams) seeking to analyse project performance. If you would like to be able to recover your under-performing projects and reduce the number of projects that fail in your organisation, then this course will be of assistance.

Project Front End Loading
A Risk Based Approach to Project Quality

How can we maximise our chances of delivering successful projects? Of the many ways to do this, correcting our front-end loading (FEL) stages probably has the highest impact. Careful planning, wise use of information and good decision making at this early phase have been shown to have greatest influence and least cost. This masterclass will help you to understand why FEL is so important, how to avoid some of the pitfalls and learn best practice, thus enabling improved project outcomes.

A Risk Based Approach to Project Quality
When delivering projects, quality is a cornerstone of success, enhancing benefit and satisfying stakeholder requirements. Conversely, without managing this key KPI, projects are unlikely to achieve their goals. Increasingly, a risk-based approach to project quality is being taken, as this tends to be more successful and a more efficient way to deliver. This highly practical course will guide delegates through a process for managing quality on a risk basis, thereby improving project outcomes, and advancing their own skills. Aimed at practising QA/QC staff at all levels, this course combines learning, practical examples, and student exercises to develop understanding and competence in this important area.
