79001 Programme and Project Sponsorship 1 año sin examen

The Programme and Project Sponsorship course has been developed to provide a clear understanding of what is required of the Programme and Project Sponsor. Not only does it address the key question, "what should I be doing?", but also, "what is an appropriate level of my involvement?", and "what should others be doing for me?".

The candidates will gain the skills needed to lead a successful delivery of a policy or strategy.
The key thing that candidates will learn are:

• The Sponsor role and how it differs for programme and projects.
• How to establish a vision and think about the implementation approach.
• How to focus on the key processes and documentation.
• Identifying and avoiding potential failure.

This programme has been designed for anyone who is sponsoring or is about to become the sponsor of, and accountable for, a change programme or project. This programme is applicable to any organisation wishing to ensure that their business change leaders have a comprehensive understanding of their roles and responsibilities. It would be particularly relevant to:

• Senior responsible owners
• Project sponsors
• Project executives
• Programme directors
• Departmental directors
