Project Management Training

Project management skills have become more of a general management tool than the sole requirement of the specialist project manager. Everybody now recognizes the importance of delivering business results to specification, on time and within budget. That is exactly what project management skills enable you to do; even if what you are working on is not officially called a 'project'. The ability to successfully manage projects from beginning to end, no matter their size, is a highly desirable skill.

Utilizing PMBOK, a global set of benchmarks, the PD Training Project Management training course has been designed to equip you with the skills required for today’s diverse and challenging requirements in the workplace. You will be exposed to concepts like project planning worksheets, how to manage resources, estimating time and costs and much more.

This dynamic training course is available now throughout Hong Kong.

This Project Management training course can be delivered at your premises by one of our expert local or international trainers or live online using our HIVE technology.

In the past few decades, organizations have discovered something incredible: the principles that have been used to create enormous successes in large projects can be applied to projects of any size to create amazing success. As a result, many employees are expected to understand project management techniques and how to apply them to projects of any size.

The project management role is arguably the most challenging of roles within the project team. As the project progresses through its various life cycle stages, project managers must be able to adapt themselves to the changing demands of the project and the team.

Effective and efficient Project Managers will ensure project success and help organizations and individuals exceed stakeholder expectations. This workshop will give participants an overview of the entire project management process, as well as key project management tools that they can use every day.

In-House Training - We’ll focus on what matters most to you and tailor to your context


Face-to-Face, Live Online, or Hybrid Class Tailored to Your Needs

When you want a tailored learning experience targeting exactly what you want without bringing everyone physically together, the best choice is a Live Online Class run by PDT.

We tailor the content and activities to be specific to your current needs and the needs of the people and run the course in our usual activity-based workshop style training, however, the participants can all be offsite, or some can be in the room with others offsite.

Unless you have a preferred tools we use 'Zoom for Education' that includes enhanced collaboration features such as One-click content sharing, real-time co-annotation (people can work together in activity files), and digital whiteboarding, we also include things like live polls and group chats so you virtually have the same collaborative learning experience of attending a course in a room with other people.

live online & hybrid

We have delivered these 100's (if not 1000's) of times, and get great outcomes. We achieve great outcomes because we keep our learner centric approach - just because it’s delivered through a screen to some or all participants doesn’t mean it needs to be less tailored or less personalised.

You still have an expert trainer who talks to you prior to the session and tailors the delivery to use your terminology, ensure activities are relevant and directly applicable and ensures an engaging learning experience that provide people with skills and techniques they can apply the very next day.

A hybrid class is with some people connecting online, and some people physically together in the same room.
