Swindlers, Con-artists and Project Managers: Understanding the Project as an Investment

Description

If securities dealers sold their investment securities the way project managers sell projects, they would be put in jail! This video explores the project as an investment and discusses how successful project portfolio management - optimizing risk versus return - requires the same rigor that any portfolio holder must exercise.

This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs. Some titles, such as Agile-related topics may qualify for other continuing education credits such as SEUs, or CEUs.

Each professional development activity yields one PDU for one hour spent engaged in the activity. Some limitations apply and can be found in the Ways to Earn PDUs section that discusses PDU activities and associated policies.

Fractions of PDUs may also be reported. The smallest increment of a PDU that can be reported is 0.25. This means that if you spent 15 minutes participating in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.25 PDU. If you spend 30 minutes in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.50 PDU.
