Project Management

MoP^TM (Management of Portfolios) is the Portfolio Management standard available from OGC which enables you to:

·        Run the right projects and programmes, delivering a measurable contribution to strategic objectives

·        Remove redundant and duplicate projects and programmes

·        Realize benefits that align with corporate strategy

·        Report effectively to improve transparency, accountability and corporate governance

Portfolio Management (PfM) plays a critical role in organizational survival and growth by better co-ordination and investment in Programmes and Projects, improving risk management, encouraging collaborative working and providing timely, accurate information to enhance management decision making.

By the end of this course, participants will be fully prepared for the official MoP^TM Practitioner exam which is held on the final day of training.  Attendees must have completed the 3-day MoP^TM Foundation course in order to take the Practitioner.  Most participants take the two courses together.

The SOMOS P3O® (Portfolio, Programme and Project Offices) training is in two parts: a three-day Foundation course for those new to the P3O® methodology and a two-day advanced Practitioner component for those who wish to become accredited practitioners.
