<h2>Project Quality Management: In-House Training</h2>
 <p>In today's environment, quality is the responsibility of everyone. Project success is no longer just the fulfillment of a project on schedule, on budget, and within the scope. Today, projects aren't successful unless the customer's needs are met at the highest level of quality at the lowest cost to the organization. Project Managers must know customer needs, and manage to them throughout the project lifecycle, in order to gain acceptance. Project Quality Management provides an interactive, hands-on environment for participants to practice identification of critical quality requirements (quality planning), fulfillment of those requirements through well-designed processes (Quality Assurance), and statistical awareness of technical specifications of project deliverables (Quality Control).</p><h3>What You Will Learn</h3>
 <p>You'll learn how to:</p>
 <ul>
 <li>Plan for higher quality project deliverables</li>
 <li>Measure key performance indicators on projects, processes, and products</li>
 <li>Turn data into useful project information</li>
 <li>Take action on analyzed data that will drive down non-value-added costs and drive up customer acceptance and satisfaction</li>

<h2>About this Training</h2>
<p>The expanding human population and industrialisation are increasing the demand for energy worldwide.

To fulfil the energy demands and overcome these challenges, numerous projects and funds are involved in finding an adequate solution.</p>
<p>Transport accounts for around one-fifth of global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and road travel accounts for three-quarters of transport emissions. Most of this comes from passenger vehicles.

APM Project Fundamentals Qualification (PFQ): In-House Training

<h2>PRINCE2® Foundation: In-House Training</h2>
<p>Projects fail for a variety of reasons including poor planning, lack of defined quality criteria, poor understanding of the business drivers, inadequate control, and lack of senior management involvement  in other words, lack of a structured best practice approach to project delivery.</p>
<p>PRINCE2® (6th Edition is the current version) is a structured, process-based approach to project management providing a methodology which can be easily tailored and scaled to suit all types of projects. It is the de facto standard for project management in the UK Government and is used extensively in more than 150 countries worldwide with in excess of 20,000 organizations already benefiting from its powerful approach. It can be used easily in combination with PMI®'s PMBOK® Guideto provide a robust project management methodology, or to augment an existing PMBOK®-based methodology with additional rigor around areas such as Quality, Organization, and Benefits Realization.</p>
<p>The goals of this course are to provide participants with a thorough grounding in PRINCE2® and its benefits and to prepare them to sit the Foundation exam.</p><h3>What you will Learn</h3>
<p>You'll learn how to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Identify the benefits and principles underlying a structured approach to project management</li>
<li>Define the PRINCE2® method in depth, including the principles, themes, and processes</li>
<li>Prepare and practice for the Foundation exam</li>

PRINCE2® Foundation: In-House Training
Projects fail for a variety of reasons including poor planning, lack of defined quality criteria, poor understanding of the business drivers, inadequate control, and lack of senior management involvement in other words, lack of a structured best practice approach to project delivery.
PRINCE2® (6th Edition is the current version) is a structured, process-based approach to project management providing a methodology which can be easily tailored and scaled to suit all types of projects. It is the de facto standard for project management in the UK Government and is used extensively in more than 150 countries worldwide with in excess of 20,000 organizations already benefiting from its powerful approach. It can be used easily in combination with PMI®'s PMBOK® Guideto provide a robust project management methodology, or to augment an existing PMBOK®-based methodology with additional rigor around areas such as Quality, Organization, and Benefits Realization.
The goals of this course are to provide participants with a thorough grounding in PRINCE2® and its benefits and to prepare them to sit the Foundation exam.
