Course Format

The Realising Benefits course is highly interactive and is based on a comprehensive case study. The course can also be run as a Benefits Realisation Workshop.

Trainer Profile
All AFA trainers have undergone the rigorous approvals process administered by the APM Group on behalf of the Office of Government Commerce (OGC). They are practising programme and project managers with considerable experience in a wide range of industry sectors. The use of hybrid trainer-managers is of great benefit to delegates and ensures that illustration and anecdotes have up-to-date validity and that the training given, whilst being intellectually rigorous is also pragmatic.

Duration
This course takes place over one day.
