University of California introduces PM course

University of California, Irvine Extension, has introduced a new course and several free industry trend Webinars as part of the Certificate Programme in Project Management, EON reports.

UC Irvine Extension is a provider of project management education, with classes available entirely online. Students gain the tools necessary to improve work performance and to gain an edge against the professional competition.

“With an increasing number of companies seeking qualified project management professionals to improve organisational performance, UC Irvine Extension is meeting the demand by offering carefully designed courses geared towards these specific needs,” said Melanie Mitchell, acting director of management, marketing and business programmes at UC Irvine Extension.

According to Market Watch, Webinar participants will not only have the opportunity to preview the core topics covered in each course offered, but will also have the chance to hear first-hand from influential project management course instructors on why the covered topics provide important keys to successful project management.

Course instructor Marty Wartenberg will guide participants that have never managed a project before through a project management boot camp-style course by providing the basic components of project management and the tools necessary to develop and lead high-performance teams.
