Course Overview

Information Technology (IT) project management is the process of managing the planning, organisation and accountability of IT projects for an enterprise. The scope of IT projects is most often large, with these projects being extremely complex.

The complex nature of IT projects can be attributed to the required response to rapidly changing technologies, with end-users demanding greater ease-of-use and flexibility. The magnitude of IT projects extends beyond applying knowledge, aligning skills and using regular tools and techniques to drive a project to completion.

IT project managers deal with multiple challenges, including interdependent integrations, rapid technology upgrades and version changes that can occur through the project timelines. Another important and challenging aspect of IT project management is information security, which is also one of the prime checkpoints and indicators of a project’s success.

Information security refers to the protection of confidentiality, integrity and availability of project information. In an effort to complete complex projects in the defined timeline and cost, to stay competitive in the market, IT project managers may overlook some basic yet key factors to the success of a project. Thus, training to manage IT projects successfully is very important.

This Zoe training course will empower you with the complete knowledge and experience to independently handle and successfully manage IT projects for your organisation. This will not only prove your credibility but will also lead to greater opportunities of undertaking higher roles and responsibilities within your organisation, fostering growth and progression.

The experience and perspective gained through this course will help you handle complex and challenging projects with ease, addressing and successfully mitigating risks in order to not affect the project outcome and help your organisation stay competitive in the fast, dynamic technological space.
