Frequently Asked Questions
About Strategic Project and Contract Management Training Course
An operational approach manages a project against its own plan. A strategic approach asks whether the project and its contracts are serving the organisation's goals at all, and manages them as instruments of strategy. The course raises your view from delivery to direction.
In most organisations project managers and contract managers work in silos, and the gap between them is where value leaks and disputes start. The course deliberately joins the two so that delivery and commercial control move together.
You learn to connect project selection, prioritisation and contracting decisions to strategic objectives, so the portfolio delivers what the organisation actually needs rather than a collection of disconnected activity.
The course covers integrated governance, risk and performance management across both projects and contracts, giving leaders a single view of delivery and commercial health.
A standard certification teaches you to run a project by the book. This course teaches you to lead projects and contracts as a strategic system, which is a leadership rather than a procedural skill.
It suits senior project and contract managers, project-office and programme leaders, and procurement and commercial leads responsible for outcomes rather than tasks.
You will be able to align project and contract delivery with strategy, strengthen governance and accountability, manage risk and performance, and lead integrated delivery.
It runs as a live online cohort and in person in cities such as Nairobi, Lagos, Accra, Kigali and Dubai, with a Certificate of Completion and post-training support, and can be delivered in-house for project and contract teams across Africa
