Testimonials

“This class teaches practical applications to project management and how to improve efficiency and productivity within a system. I highly recommend this class because it teaches skills that are relevant to leadership positions.”

Alexander Ruble

“Most engineers would not know how to manage a system to improve the revenue stream. This course gives you that knowledge through such tools as Project Charter, Project Planning, Value Stream Mapping, SWOT Analysis, Hoshin Planning and more. What I liked about the course is that it is interactive and realistic.”
