Why Study Project Management?

Project managers shoulder a long list of responsibilities on behalf of their employers.  The field of project management focuses on bringing measurable improvements to output, efficiency and cost-effectiveness, through the efficient utilisation of all available resources. A project is defined as any time-limited undertaking, activity or initiative in the workplace, which has a defined beginning and end. For the project manager, the goal is to do whatever it takes to ensure that every project fulfils its objectives as efficiently and economically as possible.  Project managers make a major contribution to the performance and profitability of the businesses they work for.  In return, successful project managers enjoy privileged access to a dynamic and extensive job market on a global basis.

At Oxford Home Study Centre, we offer an extensive range of project management courses to suit all experience and skill levels. This Level 7 Project Management Diploma takes an in-depth look at 20 essential knowledge areas, as outlined in brief below:
