Course Overview
The estimate for government capacity-building projects that nobody challenged is usually the one that fails. Scope on the practice within project and portfolio delivery expands through small agreements made in isolation. It is pitched for practitioners with responsibility for this strand of project and portfolio delivery, not for observers of it. Buying a tool rarely fixes government capacity-building projects; the underlying capability has to be built internally first. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in this aspect of project and portfolio delivery that were visible long before the incident. They gain the ability to sequence improvements to the practice within project and portfolio delivery in an order their organisation can absorb. Every module pairs a short input on government capacity-building projects with structured practice on the participant's own material. The programme takes participants through the project and portfolio delivery discipline end to end, from framing the problem to closing it out. Participants leave with a plan for the project and portfolio delivery capability sized to what their organisation can realistically absorb.
