The creation of a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) for a project is an often-misunderstood and daunting project activity. Project teams often misunderstand the purpose and uses of the WBS, confusing it with the Project Plan or Project Schedule. The WBS and the Project Schedule do have a relationship, but they are not interchangeable deliverables.

During this free Solutions Cube Group webinar, De-Mystifying The WBS, attendees will gain an understanding of the characteristics of a WBS and understand how this project deliverable is a vital blueprint for reducing project failures associated with missed or misunderstood project requirements.

Join us to learn about the uses of the Work Breakdown Structure and how to ensure it clearly represents the full scope of the project effort.

In this webinar participants will learn about:

  • Characteristics of well defined Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)
  • The relationship between a WBS and a Project Schedule
  • Methods for progressively elaborating on the content in the WBS
  • Components that help ensure the WBS developed for the project is complete
  • Clearly differentiating between “What” outcome is being built as a result of the project versus “How”to build it

Solutions Cube Group webinars are presented by experienced staff members and partners who have over 30 years of experience managing projects and developing and running facilitated project meetings and delivering project management training courses.

Creating a solid WBS is one of the critical success factors to a project’s successful outcome. This course is useful in defining the success factors you will require while creating the WBS. EdmontonPM

Share

Brian Tracy, Zig Ziglar, Connie Podesta – these speakers give keynote presentations at leadership, management and personal development conferences. You can hear these speakers, and many more, while earning your re-certification PDUs. PDUs2Go has assembled 27 Leadership bundles into one package – Managing Teams to Achieve BIG Goals.

This bundle provides the complete requirements to recertify for your 3 Year PMP cycle. This newly released set of 60 PDUs is offered by PDUs2Go, a Registered Education Provider that gives you Category 3 PDUs. That’s the full 60 PDUs for your recertification for $597.00 USD.

Let an award winning faculty of New York Times best selling authors and legendary speakers guide you on their unique viewpoints on achieving big goals, goal setting techniques and team management skills.

The variety of leaders and speakers in this audio collection will help you gain the perspective from multiple viewpoints on the best methods to manage your teams, employees, volunteers, peers, co-workers, upper management and stakeholders in your projects. There is knowledge to be gained if you are new to management or are seeking to develop your skills with help from the pros.

In this series you will learn how to set and measure big goals, how to keep your teams motivated, time management skills for managers, how to overcome obstacles and understand the science of management change within your organization. This panel of experts is a rare collection of practical advise and management philosophy, designed to help you set and achieve big goals this year.

What I like about this offering from PDUs2Go is listening to these Keynote Speakers during the commute. Instead of listening to the same Top 40 songs or Talk radio day after day, I tune in to presentations such as Achieving Greatness or Leave the Office Earlier. I arrive at the office with a positive focus on leadership and team management and I feel ready to take on the new day. EdmontonPM
