Project management provides people with a powerful set of knowledge, skills and tools to improve their ability to plan, implement, and manage projects on time and on budget. The Project Management Institute defines a project as a temporary endeavor undertaken to create a unique product, service or result. There are elements of project management in everything that we do, and project management professionals come from virtually every major industry including business management, construction, engineering, financial services, information technology, healthcare, human resources and more.
