This course is an open minded response to the persons looking for getting knowledge and practice related to the modern human and material resource management. Management alternatives associated to a project accomplishment will be presented and practiced.The lack of specific training or updating became obvious during the continuous increment of the competitive environment which involved switching from the traditional economy to the information economy where the virtual products, the orientation toward client's needs and expectations, the continuous change requests and the pressure over the bottom lines affect directly the project execution (delays, scope creep, gold plating, over costs and failures).In order to accomplish his mission, the project manager must perform an appropriate and flexible definition, planning, executing, monitoring and controlling, and finally closing the project he manages. For this reason there has been continuously developed a group of products, methods and techniques which form the "tool box" of managing projects.The course gives a flexible and practical approach of the Project Manager profession from the context of accomplishing his tasks up to the abilities he needs to develop. During the course a satisfactory analysis of the methods, techniques and tools for project management is being done.Divided into 2 learning modules one of the most worldwide spread project management frame is presented: PMBOK. The summer course participants may approach both modules or decide to attend only one of them. The two modules are complementary so attending both is the recommended option, but in case of reduced time and/or economic availability following one module only is also a great learning experience for somebody's professional development. Each learning module has a standalone one week time configuration.
