Who does What !
Reviewer: Dale from Centurion

First thing I’m going to do is get my peers exposed to this course. The Roles and Responsibilities alone will help clarify who does what on our next project. This will save me a lot of headaches next time round.

Wearing Many Hats
Reviewer: Hani from Joseph E. Seagram & Sons Inc.

The most beneficial part of this course for me was understanding how a project should flows, rather should flow, and the many different hats I now need to wear

Now Understands Project Fit!
Reviewer: Adam from Unimprovident

We have a lot of PMPs in our shop who do a really good job of managing projects. This tutorial helped me understand where I (and everyone else) fit into the overall project plan and more importantly to me is why it’s necessary. Thanks.
