Official exams and certification included.

The APMG International Project Planning and Control Foundation and Practitioner courses are based on the APM Publication Planning, Scheduling, Monitoring and Control: The Practical Project Management of Time, Cost and Risk.

The intention of the guidance is to help raise understanding so that standards can be set by organisations against a common text to ensure that they can assure a set standard and aim for best practice as well as get value for money from their projects. Above all the intention is to provide greater certainty over project delivery.

This Project Planning and Control Foundation and Practitioner course will give guidance for practising and aspiring planning and controls professionals to gain understanding of best practice, and how to apply it.
