“Investing on implementing project management world’s best practices is only the beginning to success. “Project management is unique and challenging, even when everything seems to be going well.” Research shows that 80% of programs and projects across the world exceed their deadlines; at least half go over budget and almost as many as eventually abandoned. Good program and project management can avoid such disasters.

The past several decades have been marked by a rapid growth in the use of project management as a means by which organizations achieve their objectives. Project management provides an organization with a powerful governance tool that improves its ability to plan, implement and control its activities as well as the ways in which it effectively and efficiently utilizes its people and resources.

Program and project management is important not only for an organization, but also for the aspiring managers. It is now being recognized as a “career path” in a growing number of firms. How well program managers manage one or more projects serve as a good test for the aspiring manager’s ability to coordinate and manage complex tasks and achieve results in a politically challenging environment where communication and negotiation skills are required.

For the senior management to understand, control and govern their organization, training in program management is a way to ensure successful accomplishment of their organization strategies and business needs.
