MSP® stands for Managing Successful Programmes. If you decide to do an MSP qualification you will learn about the framework used within this method whereby large, complex change can be broken down into manageable, inter-related projects for an organisation to manage more effectively.
The MSP course methodology was created from the collective expertise and experience of practitioners across a range of industries and sectors which makes it a comprehensive and flexible approach. It has now been adopted by many companies within both the public and private sectors. Our Live Virtual MSP training course is one of our most popular qualifications.
The MSP® framework is popular with programme managers and project teams and offers the following benefits to an organisation:
- Alignment with business goals
- A solid structure for achieving program benefits
- A flexible change management framework
- Boost stakeholder engagement and participation
- Achieve changes on time and within budget
Today’s economic climate consists of constant and increasing change. Organisations that have learned how to transform themselves through effective leadership and strategic control are more likely to survive and prosper. Programme management is increasingly being recognised as key to enabling organisations to manage that transformation, therefore gaining an MSP certification could be a great step forward for you and your company.
Our Foundation & Practitioner combined Live Virtual MSP qualification is designed to equip you with all the core skills and knowledge you will need to work on Programme Management. Our qualified MSP trainers will guide you through the MSP training course syllabus and help you prepare for your exams. If you have decided to do a Live Virtual MSP training course you will cover all of the theory in 4 days, you will then take your online MSP exams in your own time at home giving you a lot of flexibility.
