Programme Portfolio Management (PPM) is an approach to effectively manage and monitor project portfolios in companies or organizations. It refers to how projects and programmes within an organization are selected, prioritized, monitored and managed to ensure they meet strategic objectives and priorities.

You will learn how to translate strategic goals into structured programmes and portfolios, prioritize projects, manage resources effectively and support decision-making processes at management level. The seminar provides you with tried-and-tested methods, tools and thought models for managing complex project landscapes.

The Portfolio and Program Management seminar is aimed at project managers, program managers, PMO managers and executives who want to coordinate strategic projects and manage several projects in an overall context – even across company boundaries.

Initial experience in project management is an advantage, but not a prerequisite. The seminar provides in-depth knowledge tailored to all levels of experience.

The seminar combines theoretical content with practical case studies and exercises. This allows you to apply what you have learned directly to your own projects.

The group size is deliberately kept small to allow for personal exchange, individual questions and intensive learning. This means you benefit from real added value instead of an anonymous mass event.

The Portfolio and Program Management seminar takes place virtually, live and interactively. You can take part from the comfort of your workplace or home and benefit from an interactive online platform that facilitates exchange and collaboration.
