<h2>Project Quality Management: Virtual In-House Training</h2>
 <p>In today's environment, quality is the responsibility of everyone. Project success is no longer just the fulfillment of a project on schedule, on budget, and within the scope. Today, projects aren't successful unless the customer's needs are met at the highest level of quality at the lowest cost to the organization. Project Managers must know customer needs, and manage to them throughout the project lifecycle, in order to gain acceptance. Project Quality Management provides an interactive, hands-on environment for participants to practice identification of critical quality requirements (quality planning), fulfillment of those requirements through well-designed processes (Quality Assurance), and statistical awareness of technical specifications of project deliverables (Quality Control).</p><h3>What You Will Learn</h3>
 <p>You'll learn how to:</p>
 <ul>
 <li>Plan for higher quality project deliverables</li>
 <li>Measure key performance indicators on projects, processes, and products</li>

 <li>Take action on analyzed data that will drive down non-value-added costs and drive up customer acceptance and satisfaction</li>
 <li>Reduce defects and waste in current project management processes</li>

Scrum Master Workshop: Virtual In-House Training

<h2>Managing Complex Projects: Virtual In-House Training</h2>
 <p>As knowledge and technology expand exponentially, organizations are finding that the tools, processes, and methods used to select, plan, and manage their projects are insufficient for the challenges posed by them. The goal of this course is to provide participants with a working knowledge of project complexities and a framework for managing the ambiguities involved in today's fast-changing, competitive, and technology-based environment</p>
 <p>As knowledge and technology expand exponentially, organizations are finding that the tools, processes, and methods used to select, plan, and manage their projects are insufficient for the challenges posed by them. Complex projects don't necessarily follow the rules of traditional projects - in many instances the projects' end-products, and the methods by which they will be produced, are not easily defined. Stakeholder diversity and geographical dispersion contribute to the difficulties project managers face in their efforts to gain acceptance of project goals, objectives, and changes.</p>
 <p>Additionally, hierarchic leadership styles, traditional lifecycle approaches, and traditional project manager competencies may no longer maximize the efficiencies that need to be realized on complex projects.</p>
 <p>The goal of this course is to provide participants with a working knowledge of project complexities and a framework for managing the ambiguities involved in today's fast-changing, competitive, and technology-based environments.</p><h3>What you Will Learn</h3>

PSM I credential holders will grasp Scrum as described in The Scrum Guide™1 and recognize how those concepts can be applied. They will also share a consistent terminology and approach to Scrum with other certified professionals.</p>
 <p>Scrum.org does not require that you take their own sponsored or any preparatory training. However, training can facilitate your preparation for this credential. And this course is based on IIL's Scrum Master Workshop, which is aligned with The Scrum Guide™ and was built based on PSM I credentialed expertise. It will provide you with the information you need to pass the exam and IIL will make the arrangements for your online exam.

<h2>Agile Sprint Planning: Virtual In-House Training</h2>
 <p>The goal of the course is to provide you and your team with the ability to develop effective and realistic Sprint plans.</p>
 <p>Without effective Sprint Plans, iterations are set up for failure. But Sprint Planning cannot be improved on its own, in isolation. The Scrum processes are highly intertwined and influence each other. The surrounding artifacts, events, and roles must be examined closely, and enhanced, in order to improve Sprint Planning.</p>
 <p>This course will remind you of the theory to reinforce the principles, but will concentrate on next-level skills, so that you and the team are able to create realistic and usable Sprint Plans.</p>
 <p>This course is not introductory. You are already aware of the Scrum framework and have been implementing Scrum on your projects. Now is the time to improve efficiency and effectiveness, to facilitate successful Agile projects.</p><h3>What you will Learn</h3>
 <p>You'll learn how to:</p>
 <ul>
 <li>Identify and correlate the key symptoms and root causes of ineffective sprint plans</li>
 <li>Improve key Product Backlog elements</li>
 <li>Evaluate Agile roles in sprint planning</li>
 <li>Appraise key product practices</li>
 <li>Enhance project transparency</li>
