Summary
In this comprehensive course, you will build change management skills to elevate your strategic approach to project management. While traditional project management focuses on ensuring a project is delivered on time and within scope and budget, it often overlooks the crucial aspect of managing the human side of change.

This course also counts toward our Project Management Certificate.
