Course Overview
Projects involving seismic strengthening projects are rarely late all at once; they are late a day at a time. Stakeholders withdraw support for this aspect of project and portfolio delivery quietly before they withdraw it formally. It is pitched for practitioners with responsibility for this strand of project and portfolio delivery, not for observers of it. Content is organised around the decisions practitioners actually face in seismic strengthening projects, not around theory headings. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what this part of project and portfolio delivery has actually achieved. Teams frequently over-invest in documenting this aspect of project and portfolio delivery and under-invest in testing it. Sessions alternate between guided analysis of seismic strengthening projects and supervised application. Mature organisations treat the wider project and portfolio delivery agenda as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. The programme ends where implementation begins, with this aspect of project and portfolio delivery broken into steps someone can start on Monday.
Expected Learning Outcomes
Build the reporting on seismic strengthening projects that gives early warning rather than reassurance.

Define the scope of seismic strengthening projects precisely, including what is explicitly excluded.
Apply a repeatable review cycle to seismic strengthening projects and act on what it produces.
Build the internal capability for seismic strengthening projects rather than depending on external support indefinitely.
