We have laid the foundation for and established successful PMO functions within many corporate organisations. We have leveraged our expertise, tacit knowledge and know-how to build high quality masterclasses and programmes for PMO professionals. The Demand for PMO Expertise The demand for PMO expertise is on the rise across industry sectors globally. Highly skilled PMO professionals such as Analysts, Managers and Leads are in short supply. Findings from our client survey reveals that: PMO is sometimes seen as an administrative function and is often resourced with inadequately trained staff. In-house PMO staff with project management qualifications, often struggle to apply knowledge obtained from courses to a live project environment. Interim PMO staff are often hired to augment in-house PMO resource on business critical projects. Once the project is complete and interim staff depart, lack of knowledge transfer means that the previously bridged skill gap resurfaces. Our Goal Our goal is to focus our expertise on delivering high quality training, coaching and professional development programmes with a view to contribute to bridging the gap in highly skilled PMO professionals worldwide.

Lancashire Digital

Blackburn,

Lancashire Digital was founded in 2004 by Greg and Len Adam as a dedicated educational software team. All of the inital staff were hand-picked for their experience working in the education sector. Throughout the next 10 years, Lancashire Digital went from strength to strength, working with education industry leaders including Pearson Education, Promethean and Cambridge University Press. With a strong internal philosophy and clear strategy and leadership from Managing Director, Greg Adam, the team has grown and continues to grow. In 2006 the company decided to widen their focus, although keeping a strong educational slant, working with training providers to create e-learning training materials for corporates, government agencies and more. Buckshaw Village green man The conversion from Flash to HTML5 Over the early years of the company, the predominant technology used in the company was Adobe Flash and most of the internal developers would recognise Flash as their core skill. In 2010 however, Greg realised that the days of Flash as the main delivery mechanism for e-learning were numberered and the internal team started their transition to development using HTML5. This foresight proved to be revolutionary for the company, as Lancashire Digital developers were upskilled to HTML5 well ahead of the curve. This put them in a strong position to win work for both new development using HTML5, but given the cross-skills of the team, a large quantity of Flash to HTML5 conversion projects were undertaken. Today sees the team as a well-seasoned group of HTML5 developers with a strong background in Flash development, along with back-end specialist developers for our platforms projects. If you have any requirements for educational content or platform based work, please get in touch.
