Course Overview

No matter the career you choose to pursue, you will require some degree of proficiency in Project Management. Project Management skills prove useful not just for work but also in daily life. To that end, the Introduction to Project Management certification course by edX is an ideal place for you to start your Project Management journey. 

If you do not have any instruction or formal training in Project Management, but still need to manage projects at work, or even at home, the Introduction to Project Management training programme is perfect for you. You will learn about planning, scoping, scheduling, costing, and managing projects, one step at a time. You will also develop communication, leadership, and other people management skills.

The University of Adelaide along with edX developed the six-week Introduction to Project Management certification course. The programme is self-paced, which means that you can learn whenever you find the time. Even if you study just two to three hours a week, you can complete the course comfortably within six weeks.

Learners may enroll themselves in the program for free or pay a small amount. If they want to learn the course for free they may opt for the audit track which offers limited access to the course materials. On the other hand, if they want unlimited course access they must seek admission using the verified track for which they will have to pay a small amount.
