"Project management competence"

…and the characteristics and development of a good leader

The role of a manager is a complex one and you can only achieve your objectives if your entire team supports you. If you perform your function competently and have the appropriate personal skills, you will be able to effectively prevent team conflicts and overcome obstacles in the course of the project. This module teaches you how to develop excellent leadership skills and optimise team processes!

What you can expect of the “Project management competence” module

In order to be an effective manager and develop the competencies you need to lead a project and, naturally, a project team, you have to know what your management type is and the direction in which you want to develop yourself. What management styles and cultures exist, what am I doing right and wrong and how do these things affect my team and the project I’m working on? How do I deal with the specific challenges associated with intercultural and virtual teams? You learn all these things and much more in the ”Project management competence” module. The course is also the ideal way to prepare for the International Association of Project Managers‘ Certified Senior Project Manager (IAPM) certification  - and we’ll be happy to help you if you want to register for certification after the course. 
 
The more than 20,000 project managers who have participated in our courses are already successful in their new functions after obtaining a first-rate qualification. Gain initial project management competence by taking part in this module and acquire the necessary methodical competence to manage successful projects.

Please note: You can access this training course if you have already passed the certification exam Cert. Project Manager (IAPM) or Cert. Agile Project Manager (IAPM).
