Project Management Institute (PMI)® Professional Development Units (PDUs):
This Webinar is eligible for 1 PMI® PDU in the Strategic category of the Talent Triangle.
Event Description:
There are several scheduling approaches for projects: Agile, Critical Path, Resource-Critical Path, Critical Chain, Earned Value and Earned Work. In his article published in the MPUG-newsletter, Eric proposed a framework with which the best scheduling approach can be determined for a project. In this webinar, Eric will discuss this framework that looks at the dominant objective of the project as well as the dominant constraint. The right scheduling approach models and measures progress on both objective and constraint. Eric will provide examples of situations in which each scheduling approach fits best.
Objectives:
- Brief review of each scheduling approach, their strenghts and weaknesses
- Know what dominant objective (ideal) and dominant constraint are for your project
- Awareness of the framework (Project Ideal and Constraint Matrix – PIC-matrix) to determine best scheduling approach
