This two-day seminar is designed to provide proven risk management processes, tools, and techniques that can be immediately put to practice on any project. Attendees are provided a project risk management template/model (i.e. Microsoft Excel spreadsheet) that serves as the tool that they will immediately apply to support the identification, analysis, mitigation, and control of risks, using a case project throughout this seminar. In addition to these project risk qualification tools/techniques, attendees are introduced and challenged to apply various risk quantification techniques via problem assignments and scenarios. As a result, individuals obtain a more complete understanding of how these tools/techniques can support more effective management and communication of risks on their projects.
Who Should Attend
Project Managers, Project Leaders, Project Coordinators, Project Administrators, Program Managers, Functional Managers, and Project Team Members representing government, owner, contractor, or vendor organizations who are responsible for or involved with initiating, planning, execution, controlling, and closing of projects.
