1. The document outlines the course structure for PMP certification exam preparation. It covers 6 days of topics including introduction, processes, integration, stakeholders, schedule, cost, quality and risk.
2. Day 3 focuses on schedule and cost management. Schedule management topics include defining activities, sequencing activities, estimating durations, developing the schedule, and controlling the schedule.
3. Estimating activity durations is a key part of developing the project schedule. Various estimation techniques can be used including analogous, parametric, and three-point estimation. Contingency and management reserves should be included in the schedule to account for unknown risks.
The document discusses scope management processes for projects. It describes the key processes of scope management which include planning scope management, collecting requirements, defining scope, creating a work breakdown structure (WBS), validating scope, and controlling scope. Various terms related to scope management are also defined, such as requirements documentation, requirements traceability matrix, and validation. The importance of the WBS for project visualization, stakeholder buy-in, and change management is emphasized.
