Course Overview
A schedule for digital game development projects without a critical path is a wish list with dates. The estimate for development projects that nobody challenged is usually the one that fails. It treats the project and portfolio delivery capability as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about digital game development projects under scrutiny. Most organisations already have a policy on the wider project and portfolio delivery agenda; far fewer can show it working. Participants apply development projects to their own project throughout, so the output is directly usable. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in digital game development projects that were visible long before the incident. It is appropriate for those preparing to take on wider responsibility for development projects. The final session converts the week's work on this part of project and portfolio delivery into commitments with owners and dates.
