Resource availability is a key source of negative risk to projects. Even if your project has well-defined scope and validated activity effort estimates, if the resources you are provided are working on multiple projects and operational activities, predictability of schedule outcomes is poor.

This webinar will review some options for responding to this risk from both a systemic and project-focused perspective.

LESSONS LEARNED:

1. Understand the criticality of uncertain resource availability on project outcomes.
2. Learn which approaches for getting better knowledge of resource availability won’t work in your organization.
3. Gain a better understanding of the pros and cons of the practices that can successfully incorporate resource availability uncertainty into project planning and tracking.

Presented by the Corporate Education Group (REP 1011)
Duration: 1 Hour – PMP Exam PREP

NOTE: Although the Corporate Education Group is an REP this session may not qualify for a PDU because of its subject matter. Please contact them for further information.

Since the 1990s, the general approach to PMP exam preparation has remained static. Candidates study PMI®’s A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) and some ancillary primers, then take practice exams until they feel ready.

While this approach works, there is a more effective new approach to PMP exam preparation that has more benefits than just getting you ready to pass the exam:

The Task-Skill Method

The Task-Skill Method takes a unique approach that focuses on the expected roles and responsibilities of a Certified Project Management Professional.

Armed with an intuitive understanding of on-the-job requirements, you will better understand PMP exam questions and achieve higher overall scores.

CorpEd provides a complete overview of the Task-Skill Method, including:

• The 28 must-know PMP Tasks
• The 28 must-know PMP Knowledge and Skill Sets
• How to structure your own PMP Exam prep approach using the Task-Skill Method
• How leveraging the Task-Skill Method can enable an immediate impact to productivity in the workplace.

The Task-Skill Method identifies 28 essential PMP Tasks and PMP Knowledge and Skill Sets and provides sufficient training for each. It still relies on the PMBOK® Guide, but as a reference standard, not a foundational requisite.

About the Presenter: Eric Nielsen, PMP, (LinkedIn profile) has more than 30 years of work experience in small, mid-size and large corporate environments, at all levels from technical to executive. Drawing on his background in the Nuclear Power industry, Eric has helped numerous organizations improve their project performance across many industries including Defense, Aerospace, Medical Devices, and Healthcare.
