This comprehensive Project Management training course shows how project status reporting should be done and
covers those things that are necessary to enable good project status reporting.
The course shows how to track project progress, what data the team leader should gather and what information the
team leader should report to the Project Manager. Reporting by the Project Manager to the project sponsor is
covered. Examples of project reporting templates are given. Case studies illustrate how factual numerical reporting
can be as an effective management tool, and can give early warning of project problems (thereby making it more
likely for problems to be fixed).
Project reporting cannot be taught in isolation: it is merely one facet of an integrated project management process.
The course shows how if things like estimating, planning, risk management, time recording and task status recording
are done properly can make project reporting become relatively straightforward. Without good planning and control,
status reporting becomes a matter of opinion and painful reality can be hidden and ignored until it's too late. The
course highlights the benefits of proper project reporting.
Upon completion of the course, the trainee will learn the:
 Concepts of Project Management
 Communication Management
 Progress Reports
 Manage Project Scope
 Advance Scheduling and Cost Management Concepts
 EVM as a best tool of measuring performance
This course is highly beneficial to:
 Project Managers
 Contract Managers
 Project Team Leaders
 Project Team Members
 Procurement Staff
 Negotiators
 Engineering Professionals
