These courses can be taken as personal or professional development and may enhance your employability. In today’s challenging economic environment, project managers, senior management, and professional needs to understand the fundamental supportive and strategic role that project management plays in business. If companies are to pursue their plans for stability and growth they need to cease seeing project management as a functional activity and place it at the core of their business processes. At the same time, project managers and planners share the responsibility to engage better on a business basis with senior executives. Course Details Mode of Study Using Web-based technology, this program provides self-paced, individualized instruction that can be taken anywhere and anytime an individual has access to a computer and the Internet. This Programme is suitable for successful professionals or specialists in the private, public, or voluntary sectors who have new management responsibilities and need to quickly expand their management knowledge. This Programme serves as a refresher course for those who have had their Masters a long time ago and need quick reminders and professional/ academic updates while it serves as a primer for those very experienced Professionals who never made time out for their masters yet they require the academic and practical relevance of this master’s experience. It is a short executive training that runs online for 3 months. Candidates will run 2 months of active lectures and series of assignments and 1 month for their dissertation. Upon successful completion of the Programme, candidates will be awarded a Continuing Professional Development (CPD) certificate in the specific Programme they have completed. What is a CPD Course? Continuing Professional Development (CPD) is the means by which professionals maintain and enhance their knowledge and skills. The world is constantly moving at a very fast pace so undertaking CPD is essential to support a professional in his/her current role as well as helping them with career progression. CPD is all about upgrading knowledge, skills, and capabilities to remain effective and compliant. A CPD course is an investment that you make in yourself. It’s a way of planning your development that links learning directly to practice. CPD can help you keep your skills and knowledge up to date and prepare you for greater responsibilities. It can boost your confidence, strengthen your professional credibility, and help you become more creative in tackling new challenges. Is the SEMP Project Management Programme right for me? Some project managers train specifically for a professional role in project management right from the start, whilst others progress through their organization in different roles, and at some point identify project management as a role they would like to take on. Sometimes it is a role that you fall into by accident or one that is thrust upon you; so practical experience is often gained before becoming certified. If you are contemplating a career change then there are several things you should consider. Firstly, you must consider if you think you have the right sort of personality to become a project manager, for instance: Are you comfortable taking the lead role in a high-pressure situation? Have you got the ability to effectively manage resources on a large scale? Can you think on your feet and quickly react to change? Do you have good problem-solving skills? Do you have experience with finance to manage large budgets? Can you be honest, and say ‘No’ to staff and management when required? Can you be decisive when required, and accept responsibility for your decisions? If you answered yes to most of these questions then a career in project management is definitely worth considering. As long as you’re proficient in most of the above, you can learn the remaining aspects through good additional training. Why SEMP Project Management? This non-credit-bearing course is designed to provide benefits to the managers and directors of a project and to an Organization, through the controllable use of resources and the ability to manage business and project risk more effectively.
