Overview
Build your leadership and people skills in this interactive program. Projects don’t fail, go over budget or fall behind schedule due to a lack of technical skills in our people. In most cases, teams face these challenges due to a lack of soft skills. This program was developed to address this common concern.
This certificate focuses on the standardized project management process and highlights major pitfalls that lead to project overruns. The six modules actively promote information sharing and discussion by participants.
By the end of the program, participants will know how to manage meetings effectively, identify communication barriers, form successful teams and apply appropriate leadership skills in various scenarios. In addition, participants will be able to apply conflict management strategies, use project management software, manage productivity improvement processes and prepare project action plans.
The Project Leadership Certificate is available through in-class and online delivery.

Overview
Lean Six Sigma is an operating strategy that seeks to maximize productivity by creating value in the eyes of the end user. The focus is not on a single department, area or process but on the optimization of the entire system.
