The Indian Institute of Management, Calcutta (IIM-C), in partnership with Emeritus, has unveiled an Advanced Programme in Strategic Project Management, aimed at tackling the complexities of modern projects. Tailored for mid and senior-level executives, this nine-month intensive program is designed to equip participants with the skills needed to lead strategic initiatives with a project-oriented approach.
The initiative targets individuals with both direct and indirect project experience, offering a pathway for transitioning between project management domains or preparing for more challenging roles in Strategic Project Management. It also caters to those aspiring to shift from project execution to overseeing project portfolios for business growth, aligning projects with organizational objectives, fostering innovation through sought-after techniques, and refining leadership abilities for efficient project and team management.
Featuring over 120 hours of live online sessions conducted by esteemed faculty from IIM-Calcutta, the course incorporates case studies, real-time project simulations, actionable insights from industry experts, peer-to-peer learning opportunities, and two seven-day in-campus immersions. These immersions provide participants with hands-on experiences and further reinforce theoretical learning.
A key component of the program is the Capstone project, which offers participants the chance to apply their newfound knowledge in a real-world setting. Covering macro perspectives, tactical and operational issues, as well as behavioral aspects of project management, the modules are meticulously crafted to provide a comprehensive understanding of Strategic Project Management.
This collaboration between IIM Calcutta and Emeritus signifies a commitment to delivering high-quality education and addressing the evolving needs of professionals in the project management domain. Through this advanced program, participants are poised to enhance their capabilities, drive organizational success, and navigate the complexities of modern project landscapes with confidence.
