PMBOK® Guide – Sixth Edition: 16-Managing Projects for Human Resources

The strength of a project is based on the resources acquired. The Planning Process Group allows project managers to determine resource requirements for each activity within the project and ensuring that the delivery of raw materials along with the people to develop those raw materials is sequenced according to project schedule timelines. These activities fall into the first two processes in the Human Resource Management Knowledge Area: Develop the Project Team and Manage the Project Team. Managing Projects for Human Resources covers the processes, inputs, and tools and techniques involved with developing and managing the project team. Furthermore, this course will teach the principles and best practices used by project managers to establish a solid team capable of producing project deliverables on time and within budget.
