Course Introduction

Project management plays a very critical role in determining the success of a project and the growth of an organisation. Considering this importance, the entire life cycle of a project is closely looked upon and managed, with each step being calculated and decided in advance.

Risks are also predicted and addressed in time to minimise or completely eliminate negative impact on the project outcome and timeline. What is project planning and control, then? How different are these from project management? So to say, project planning and control are two critical steps of project management, but not the only.

Project planning includes a set of pre-decided methods, processes and measures undertaken by a project team to help meet the objectives of the project while offering adequate attention to all aspects through the project life cycle. It brings together the scope, time, cost and other associated aspects of the project cycle.
