EVMI® 101: Earned Value Management
Fundamentals Course
DURATION: 2 DAYS
COURSE HIGHLIGHTS:
You Must
Assume Full & Total Control Of Your Projects Now!
Don’t let your
project tailspin into a disaster! Take full control of your project! Do
not let your project control you! You can achieve this goal by being
proactive in its monitoring and control rather than being reactive. Apply
the use of Earned Value in Project Management to promote effective project
planning, monitoring, and control. We will help set up an early warning
system that will give you early signs of trouble with your project health.
Also discover the keys used to identify potential cost and schedule overruns
and grasp the tools and techniques that needed to compare actual work
accomplished against baseline schedules and cost.
Above all we will set you
on path to recognize what must be done to successfully implement and use
Earned Value in your organization utilizing the ANSI-748a Standards &
Guidelines
