The art of making an effective WBS
Planning a project always starts with defining the scope. In this training, the participant will learn how to set-up the right Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) for their specific project. The second part of the training will focus on defining solid ways to measure scope progress. This training is often combined with our 4-hour introduction class, 'Principles of Project Controls'.

Learning goals
- Evaluate existing project structures (such as WBS) and be able to explain why this structure is suitable or not for the project.
- Make solid work packages for your own projects.
