Looking to elevate your organization, and bring it to the next level? Bring on learners from Brenau University's College of Business and Communication to be your learner-consultants, in a project-based experience. As learners are introduced to the Principles of Project Management, they will work on a primary course project over the experience of their 7 week semester. Their course of "Introduction to Project Management" provides an introduction to the key knowledge areas of Project Management as established by the Project Management Institute (PMI). These knowledge areas are the foundation for best practices in project management and include the management of: project integration, scope, time, cost, quantity, human resources, communications, risk and procurement. What can our learners do for your company? Our learners will individually be tasked with performing a business analysis related to a project your organization is either currently undertaking, or considering undertaking. Their analysis will result in a report that gives an overview of the situation and provides suggestions and guidance moving forward. Their work will help your company to identify needs and provide actionable recommendations, based on their in-depth research and analysis. Additionally, your feedback on their reports will help to align their academic learning with real-world industry expectations and productivity.
