Every year, thousands of people are thrust into projects or project management roles at their companies. In fact, many project managers are assigned to or even placed in charge of high-profile projects, potentially worth millions of dollars to their organizations—with no tools, no direction, and little structured training. If you’ve recently been propelled into a project management role at your company, RMC can help!

This 1-day course in real-world project management is perfect for people who are looking to get projects back on track, find easy-to-use tools that can make an immediate impact, or too busy to learn the fundamentals of project management. If you feel like you’re winging it, running out of time or losing control, you need this one day of training to start managing your projects the RIGHT way!

This course is offered in both public and onsite versions. If interested in hosting an onsite course, please click here to read more about our onsite courses and complete a request form.

Note: This course is designed for people with little or no formal project management training. If you are familiar with the International Standards for project management or are considering becoming certified in the next six months, please review the details of our 3-day Project Management Tricks of the Trade® course.
