SCOPE MANAGEMENT Working on the Right Work

What is my project about? What does it include and what does it exclude? What is my “right work?” This interactive seminar addresses the scope management processes from project creation through project closeout. We cover best practice techniques in creating the project charter, the scope statement and the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). We target the important aspects of scope verification and scope change control.
