Project Management Fundamentals: Virtual In-House Training Many projects are performed by highly competent and effective people who have little or no project management training. They perform projects like process improvement, marketing campaign development, new product development, event planning and production, and other 'tasks' which are projects. Project Management Fundamentals (PMF) is designed to support those people who need a solid foundation in project management, without being unnecessarily burdened to learn it while on the job. The course offers practical skills, concepts, and principles that can be taken back to the workplace, along with insights needed to adapt them to specific project environments. In today's environment, that means possibly adapting to Agile / Iterative methods. So, we have recently added key Agile concepts to provide a basic understanding of shifting towards agility. Since PMF's course goal is to achieve quality performance by learning effective planning and control, the focus is on a process orientation and an analytical, systems-oriented approach. Together, these frameworks promote project-related problem solving and decision-making skills necessary for real world projects. They honor project needs for collaboration, clear communications among people, and interpersonal and relationship skills. Recognition of these needs are woven throughout PMF, but are highlighted in two specific areas: Module 2 - People and Projects Module 8 - Executing, Communicating, and Developing the Team
This one-day course introduces the field of user experience and provides an excellent entry point to our other specialised training courses. UX processes and practices have become a central component of product design, service design and web design.
Course description Figma is an industry leading web-based design tool that allows you to create user interfaces for any screen type or size, collaborate on those designs in real-time and build interactive prototypes suitable for user testing. Figma is a visual design tool so there’s no coding involved. Design is achieved by adding, combining and styling shapes, text and images on a canvas or ‘Frame’. We run 2 consecutive Figma training days, the second day building on the practical activities from the first. You can attend just the first day. Attending just the second day is only recommended if you’re already very comfortable with the Figma interface. Day 1: Basic Figma design and collaboration For beginners with no prior experience with Figma who want to understand the basics, be able to create their own designs, share, collaborate and even iterate on the designs of others. You will learn: How to navigate the Figma interface. How to create your own designs by: Setting up a design file. Setting up the screen type you want to design and add grids and guides. Adding and modifying basic shapes and text to create user interface elements. How to save text and colour styles for reuse. How to create reusable components. How to use the ‘auto layout’ feature to promote tidy, consistent and usable design. How to collaborate on designs by sharing screens and commenting on designs. A brief introduction to prototyping: What’s possible. What’s not. Day 2: Component variants, design systems and prototyping This session will cover the more sophisticated aspects of Figma use such as: How to use component variants to create: Interaction styles such as hover and mouse down states ‘Flavours’ of a widget such as primary and secondary button styles. Toggleable elements within a widget such as buttons or bullets within a product card. How to turn a collection of components into a basic design system. Prototyping fundamentals: How to make journeys clickable. How to introduce animations. Tips and tricks for effective user testing. The limitations of Figma prototyping Is it for you? With no experience of Figma necessary, this course is suitable if: If you’re involved with creating or curating digital experiences. if you want to turn your design ideas into something tangible. If you work with Figma designers and want to understand the ‘art of the possible’. If you want to collaborate with your team on Figma projects. Learning objectives After completing day 1 you will be able to: Understand the Figma user interface. Create mobile and desktop interface designs. Effectively collaborate remotely. Share designs and gather feedback. Use auto layout to promote consistent and usable designs. Understand Figma’s role in user experience design, and its limitations. After day 2 you will be able to: Understand how design systems are set up and used. Create component variants for use in your own design system. Use that design system to efficiently create a user journey. Create a prototype suitable for user testing.
