Introduction to Project Management

Staff within publishing companies are increasingly asked to act as project managers, overseeing new product developments and launches.

This course is for those working in non-editorial publishing roles who have to manage projects. Whether you are tasked with organising an event, updating a website, or launching a new app, it will give you the confidence to be a good project manager. You’ll gain tips on how to get the most out of your time, understand the terminology of project management; and learn how to plan, execute and close a project. It will also look at good communication, budgeting, scheduling and dealing with any difficulties that may arise.

Please note that the examples in this course are drawn exclusively from non-editorial projects.
