The managing multiple projects course is for the manager who has to juggle many projects due to the size of the company or program. The course may also benefit people who allocate the resources or set the priorities for multiple projects. This course will lead project managers through the complex nature of multiple projects with multiple teams and multiple goals. Managers will use Microsoft Project or a similar program to prioritize, plan and initiate the actual projects they are working on. Topics taught will include the challenges of multiple projects, leadership training for simultaneous projects, roles in the multi-project environment, determining stakeholder goals, planning, scheduling, assigning responsibility, assessing risk, maintaining the team spirit, communication, setting goals, conflict resolution, and applying the basics of project management to multiple projects. The goal of the course is to teach managers to lead their teams to well-defined goals.
