Featured Workshop
This page is an opportunity to tell you more about a particular ASET Award, ASET Qualification or Human Performance Workshop.
There are numerous reasons for featuring a workshop which could include the subject area being topical, perhaps through a change in the law or an identified national skills gap; a new workshop having been developed; a recently accredited ASET Award; or just a workshop that we are particularly proud of, or about which our delegates are enthusiastic. The featured workshop currently is:
ASET Certificate in Successful Project Management - Level 3
This workshop was written from scratch at the beginning of 2007 and mapped across to the National Occupational Standards MGG004; MGG005 and MGG006. Since January Human Performance has run this workshop for 100's of delegates across many different sectors. In October 2007, following achievement of ASET Licensed Centre Status in September 2007, this workshop achieved accreditation as an ASET Level 3 Award. This means that candidates complete a 40 question multiple choice paper at the end of the three days of guided learning and then have four weeks to complete and submit an assessed assignment. Subject to achievement of a minimum score of 70% in the multiple choice paper and meeting all seven learning outcomes in the assessed assignment, the candidate receives the ASET Certificate in Successful Project Management - Level 3.
The Certificate in Successful Project Management – Level 3 is a highly participative and practical workshop that will enable all candidates to develop their skills to National Occupational Standards in project management. Group activity, discussion, and practical activities and observation are all used to maximise the candidate’s skills and knowledge retention. A detailed and challenging case study project has been designed which candidates will work on at various stages of the workshop to allow them to practice the skills covered during previous workshop sessions. All candidates receive a detailed workshop manual and a back to work action plan designed to encourage use of the new knowledge to assist in developing competence.
Programme Objectives
Candidates will review their previous project management experiences and identify areas that need improvement. They will discover the four essential documents required for conception and definition of the project prior to stakeholder approval and sign off. Candidates will be introduced to an incredibly effective project planning process and learn how to logically structure their project planning to assure effective achievement of their objectives.
Candidates will learn how to monitor, track and control the project and how to deal with and overcome project problems. Candidates will learn essential people management skills to motivate the project team to achieve project goals and deadlines as well as facilitating the four different types of meetings the project manager has responsibility for during this phase.
Candidates will develop influencing and persuasion skills to help them become more assertive in their negotiations. Candidates will learn how to structure and prepare for negotiations to enable a “win – win” outcome. This negotiation module will culminate in an intensive role play activity involving all the candidates and which is the culmination of the case study project they have been working on over previous days.
Candidates will understand how to complete the three areas of project evaluation required of project management as well as how to complete the project report and stakeholder sign off.
