What participants thought
“The course is the perfect combination of theory and practice. Usable theory is applied to practice straight away and the approach to a project becomes clear from A to Z. This course is ideal for anyone who could use more structure in tackling projects.”
M.O. Kalter, RS Components B.V.- Project Management“Within three days you get a good picture of how 'project management' works. You can actually get started with it straight away.”
J. Brummel- Project Management“As a beginner with no previous project management experience, I found this course excellent. I learned a great deal and was given valuable, practical tools to get started with and to keep a good overview. They were three thoroughly enjoyable and instructive days.”
A. Tolboom - Trias Pedagogica- Project Management“In a short space of time I was given a great many tools that allow me to set up and manage my projects better. I can even apply the knowledge I gained on a personal level.”
Chris Koeling, SBP b.v. De Zaak - Project Management
Frequently asked questions
- Which topics are covered during the Project Management course?

You take away practical checklists and tools that you can apply directly in your own work.
- Who is the Project Management course suitable for?

No prior knowledge is required, so you can join without any previous experience. During this classroom course you learn to manage projects successfully from definition through to completion.
- Is prior knowledge required for the Project Management course?
- No, no prior knowledge is required for the Project Management course. You can start straight away, whatever your background or work experience. The course begins with the basics of working on a project basis and builds up step by step to the complete project cycle. It is useful if you deal with projects in your work, so that you can apply what you have learnt immediately during the practical cases.
- What course material do you receive with the Project Management course?
- With the Project Management course you receive an extensive syllabus containing a step-by-step plan for setting up a project, practical checklists and cases. You also receive tools for drawing up your own project plan, risk analysis and schedule. This material can be applied directly alongside your own work, so that you can put what you have learned into practice straight away.
- Which teaching methods are used during the Project Management course?
- The Project Management course combines theory with discussions and short practical cases. In a classroom setting you work on assignments that you link directly to your own working situation. As a result, you take concrete material back to your workplace. The course material contains checklists, overviews and tools for project plans, risk analyses and schedules, among other things, which you can continue to use alongside your day-to-day work.
- When should you choose a classroom Project Management course at Learnit rather than a PRINCE2 or PMP certification route?
- Learnit's Project Management course is method-independent and focuses on working in projects in practice: setting up, phasing, planning and controlling projects. You learn to keep an overview of planning, finances, risks and the roles of those involved. The course lasts and, classroom-based. Choose this option if you lead projects or work in projects and are looking for direct applicability, without an exam or certification requirements. A PRINCE2 or PMP route, by contrast, focuses on a specific methodology with an exam, a longer lead time and a higher investment. If you do not need a formal certificate but do want practical tools (checklists, project plan, risk analysis, planning tools) that you can apply straight away in your own working situation, this course is the better fit. No prior knowledge is required.
- How does this Project Management course differ from a PRINCE2 Foundation course, and when should you choose which?
- Learnit's Project Management course is method-neutral and teaches you to work on a project basis using the project cycle: definition, design, preparation, delivery and aftercare. You practise with phasing, planning, risk analysis, finances, team roles and communication. The course takes and, classroom-based. A PRINCE2 Foundation course focuses on one specific method with a fixed vocabulary and concludes with a certification exam. Choose the Learnit course if you are looking for practical skills to set up and steer projects in your own organisation straight away, without being tied to one framework. Choose PRINCE2 if your employer or client explicitly asks for that certification.
- Can I apply what I learn in this Project Management course directly to a project that is already running, or do I have to wait until a new project starts?
- You can apply what you have learnt directly to a project that is already under way. The course is structured around working on a project basis: definition, design, preparation, delivery and closure. During the course you continually relate the theory back to your own working situation through discussions and short cases. If your project is already in the delivery phase, you can immediately put tools such as risk analysis, planning techniques and checklists to work to get a grip on scope, lead time and budget. For a project that has yet to start, you use the step-by-step plan from the syllabus to draw up a project plan. The overviews and checklists provided are deliberately practical, so that you can use them alongside your day-to-day work. Even if you are not a formal project manager.
