About the Course:

Project Management is the application of knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques to meet project requirements and deliver successful outcomes. Project Management Fundamental provides a structured approach to planning, executing, and closing projects, ensuring efficiency, resource optimization, and goal achievement.
