Overview

Cross Civil Service

Anyone who has ever worked on a project knows that, as it develops, change is inevitable. As long as any changes are proactively managed, a project should still be a success. It’s when changes aren’t managed successfully that scope creep becomes a factor and can have a significant impact on the direction of a project.

This course introduces you to the processes for managing the scope and quality of a project. You’ll learn how and why things can change within a project, considering factors such as political developments or changing customer requirements. You’ll find out how change can be accommodated, managed and communicated through a change control process.
