Project Planning and Management Training

About this Non Profit Project Planning and Management Training

Every successful program or project is based on great idea being design well and loads of planning. The planning of a project takes focus and creativity. So how do we design a project that is successful, on time, on budget and achieves all of the goals set? It’s a big ask when there are limited resources.

This session will help to develop an idea from scratch into a project plan building a solid base for knowing exactly what you intend to do, how you intend to do it and how much money is required to make it successful.

This workshop will assist attendees to avoid common project plan faults and maximise resources for a better chance of success. It will also help those who apply for grants to have a solid base for including in grant applications, so funders can see everything is ready to go.
