Project Management @ School

Course description

Course overview and purpose:
Managing a project involves different aspects and several activities that have to be tracked and followed up on. Tasks must be defined, a related schedule must be created, resources have to be made available and assigned to the project, and risks have to be identified. A project management system is a means of managing a project by planning, organising, and managing its different required aspects.
This course aims at providing school workers with specific tools and approaches that can improve the quality of education and make it more interactive and enjoyable. Thanks to Project Management (PM) tools, teachers and principals can better communicate and collaborate, ensure the effectiveness of their education projects, and provide their students with innovative techniques which will be viable and useful in their classwork.

Learning outcomes:

  • apply PM tools and techniques illustrated and tested during the course
  • organise and plan the education projects for a successful implementation of the project activities, and for achieving the expected project’s results
  • organise and manage the work with others, monitor their work, prevent and address conflicts
  • monitor the project development, assess and evaluate the quality of its outcomes, deal with possible risks
  • create and deliver project reports, both for internal and external purposes
  • find solutions to the ongoing challenges of sustainability
  • organise and manage the financial and administrative issues of the project, as well as check the eligibility of costs

Course dates are made available based on the availability of trainers but are “confirmed” only once the minimum number of participants is reached.

Course dates are listed Sunday to Sunday. The course usually takes place Monday to Friday and the full-day trip usually takes place on Saturday, so Sundays are arrival and departure days for those who book course, activities and accommodation. You can leave earlier if you book just the course.
