Public Sector Project Management Training – Customized Employee Training for St. Paul and Minneapolis Businesses

Public Sector projects take place on a variety of scales. They can be a multi-year million-dollar rebranding project; they can be the purchase of new equipment for maintaining parks and recreation areas; they can be an event like an open house for the public works garage or organizing public feedback on a proposed ordinance. Large or small, 1 year or 1 day, projects have consistent phases, and they have best practice strategies and tools for managing those phases. IPD project management training focus on helping your project managers and coordinators choose what tools to use for each project to scale the project management work to the project being managed.

All trainings are taught by instructors who understand the difference between public sector project work and corporate projects. If you do not see the training you need, reach out IPD. Our instructors will be able to build training that will improve project management in your organization.

Course Options

Succeeding with Public Sector Projects

This 3- day course introduces your project managers and future project managers to the 5 phases and 13 knowledge areas used by the Project Management Institute ®. More than just telling, this workshop shows project management tools through role-playing when the participants become project managers in the fictional city of Dillard. Dillard has lots of growth, lots of competing priorities, and no project management consistency. Through the interactive training experience, your employees will have robust discussions that transcend from Dillard to your public sector situation building project management skills and confidence with your leaders and staff.

Sponsoring Public Sector Projects

IPD highly recommends that you pair the Succeeding with Public Sector Projects with this ½ day of training to prepare your management team to support the project managers in your organization.
