What management practices are covered on Days 3 and 4?

Days 3 and 4 are dedicated to the management practices used to plan and control project work at the activity level. These practices complement the integrated lifecycle activities covered earlier by providing the techniques and controls teams use to manage delivery in a measurable way.Day 3 covers project planning and quality management, scope management, benefit management and change control, schedule and cost management, resource management and procurement, and risk and issues management. Together, these topics define what the project will deliver, how delivery will be planned, how quality will be managed, and how trade-offs are controlled when constraints change. Risk and issues management keep uncertainty and problems visible so that decisions can be made early rather than after impact is realized.Day 4 continues the management practices with stakeholder engagement, communication management, project reporting, information and documentation management, and lessons learned. These topics address how project information is shared and how the project maintains traceability. Reporting and documentation management help ensure that decisions, changes, and progress are captured consistently and can be reviewed. Lessons learned support improvement by capturing what worked and what did not, so future projects can adjust practices.These management practices are intended to be applied in combination. For example, scope decisions affect schedule and cost; changes affect benefits; and stakeholder engagement influences communication and reporting needs. The course structure reflects this by grouping the practices into coherent sets across two days and tying them back to lifecycle control and governance.The educational approach includes practical examples and quizzes to help translate these practices into real project scenarios, along with review activities and a practice test for exam preparation.
