Digital project management - advanced

The IAB Advanced Digital Project Management is designed for those with some experience of managing digital projects but who need a deeper understanding and more formal approach, processes and structures to enable them to really manage effectively. This can be a stand alone day or as part of a modular two day course with the Digital Project Management Foundation day to take beginners to a higher level of practical skills.

What it covers

There is no such thing as a ‘typical web project.’ They vary in form, length and complexity which means managing them can be a difficult experience. Successful project managers have to deal with mixed teams all with different roles and responsibilities, tight budgets and deadlines as well as managing the excitement and expectations of others. They need a project management style that can be adapted to match the diverse range of tasks they are expected to undertake.

This course has been designed to guide delegates through the often challenging world of digital project management and production leaving them with adaptable skills that can be applied to any web project they might be tasked with.
