Course Overview Obtain internationally recognised programme management qualifications at the end of this intensive accredited 5 day course. Managing Successful Programmes MSP is the de-facto standard for best practice in programme management and is in growing use throughout the public and private sectors both in the UK and overseas. It is a particularly strong framework for implementing change where there is a vision of an outcome but no clear path to get there. MSP provides a rational, scaleable framework for working out the path required. The objective of a programme is to deliver a beneficial outcome, using a portfolio of projects to make the tactical changes required. Programme management is a structured approach to working out what benefits are required within the outcome, and then to analyse what capabilities must be changed to make the benefits achievable. The MSP framework helps identify the right projects to run. PRINCE2 project management can then be used to run the projects in the right way. Including the MSP Challenge CD, this course is an in depth study of the method and includes the highly valued Foundation, Intermediate and Practitioner exams. Audience The course is suitable for programme managers and senior project managers who are seeking a recognised framework and qualification.
