The Continuing Education Department of Georgia Southern University is offering Beginning and Advanced Project Management courses at the Coastal Georgia Center in downtown Savannah in March and April. The courses are the first of several professional development and personal enrichment programs the University will offer at this location in 2011.

Beginning Project Management, a two-session course (March 4-5), covers the key skills and tools needed to be successful in the planning and completion of assigned projects.

Advanced Project Management, a four-session course (March 25, April 1, 15 and 29), advances training with the internationally accepted standard of Project Management from The Project Management Institute.

Together, the 12-hour Beginning course and 24-hour Advanced Project Management course will complete the 35-hour course requirement for the Project Management Institute’s Professional Management Professional certification application.

The instructor for both courses will be Doug Winters, a Project Management Professional certified by the Project Management Institute and a Six Sigma Black Belt certified by Southern Polytechnic State University.
