Opleiding: Managing Major Projects, PGCert
Learning purpose
The demand for experienced project managers to run complex, business-critical projects in business and the public sector has outstripped supply. We invite applications from experienced project managers from all sectors - business, finance, education, health, computing and the arts. The programme contains a mixture of academic and practical elements and through its modular structure enables students to take highly practical techniques and tools back into their workplace from the start.
Programme
The course is designed by the National Centre for Project Management at Middlesex University and CITI (APM Accredited Training Provider) to help professional project and programme managers successfully run major projects. The course is delivered using seminars, personal coaching and written assignments.
The course is built around three modules
Advanced Project Management 1
Success factors; business strategy; change management; stakeholder management; organising for projects; scoping the project; advanced project disciplines; resource management; project monitoring and control.
Advanced Project Management 2
Contracting implications; strategy to specification; defining the requirements; partitioning the work; the tender process; defining the contract; contract agreement; managing the contract; understanding people; organisational awareness; conflict, negotiation and influencing; leadership and motivation; working with teams; project communication; managing virtual teams.
Academic Project Report
A final 5,000-8,000 word project report concerned with investigating and addressing a major project shortfall. This draws together the learning from the whole programme to be applied to an area of action within your organisation.
The PGCert is a part-time course which can be completed in a minimum of nine months. Over this period there are 13 compulsory contact teaching days, grouped in blocks of two to four days, and the rest of the course is completed in distance learning mode. Nearly all our students are in full-time employment and all course assessment is based on students' own current or recently completed project work. There are no exams.
Entry Requirements
The course is aimed at experienced project and programme managers who wish to refine, develop and improve their skills. The entry requirements for the course are as follows: you should possess a good honours class degree and ideally have a minimum of three years experience in managing small to medium projects, or have substantial management experience. Applicants should apply directly to the National Centre for Project Management
English language requirements
You must have competence in English language. The most common English Language requirements for international students are IELTS 6.5 or TOEFL (paper based) 575 or TOEFL (internet based) 90 with specified minimum scores for each component.
Professional perspective and employment market
This programme has been specifically designed to create a body of professional project and programme managers able to successfully run the major projects and programmes that are challenging organisations today.
