What You'll Learn in This Course
Master key concepts and practical skills through structured learning modules. By completing this curriculum, you'll gain valuable expertise applicable to real-world scenarios.
Learning Outcome 1
The PMBOK® Guide only summarizes or lists Project Management framework and context topics in Chapters 1 and 2. The entire book is basically a reference book for the PMI project management standard. It is not oriented toward learning the material. For this reason, the class covers each framework, context, standard, and knowledge area topic in detail with information from the source reference materials used to create the exam. General knowledge that the project manager is expected to know through experience and prior training is covered, so that the course is comprehensive in preparing you to take the test.

Concepts behind this area
Project Charter
A project charter is the short document that formally authorises a project, names its sponsor and manager, states its purpose, its intended outcomes and its boundaries, and gives the manager the authority to spend the organisation's resources on it.
Project Scope
Project scope is the agreed description of what a project will deliver and what it will not, stated precisely enough that a change to it can be recognised as a change and decided rather than absorbed.
Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)
A work breakdown structure decomposes a project's total scope into a hierarchy of deliverables and, at the bottom, work packages small enough to estimate, assign and track, so that everything to be produced appears exactly once.
Statement of Work (SoW)
A statement of work is the document that commits one bounded piece of work to paper: what gets built, on which assumptions, to what deadline, for what money, and what sits outside it.
Scope Creep
Scope creep is the quiet expansion of a priced piece of client work through additions that each look too minor to renegotiate, until what gets delivered is substantially larger than what was sold.
Retainer
A retainer is a recurring fee that holds a supplier's time or availability open across a period, so what the client buys is first call on somebody's attention rather than any named artefact.
