Course overview
Starting a car without any fuel in the gas tank is never a great idea, is it? Without gas, the engine can’t start, the car won’t move, and you’ll never get anywhere.
Similarly, a project without a proper budget in place won’t go anywhere either. You need approved funding to get all the resources in place before you start your project on the road to success. After all, how many projects really get going for free?
Stakeholders want to see every cent accounted for before they give their approval. Whether that’s in direct or indirect costs, or part of a risk contingency plan. But how can you plan for unknown costs and risks? This course is designed to show you how to deliver a thorough and accurate budget for your project.
