Course Description

Project managers increasingly rely on digital and intelligent tools to support planning, analysis, communication, and decision-making in complex and data-rich environments. You will identify and evaluate technology-enabled and intelligent tools that support project management across performance domains. Discovering tools that have technology-driven capabilities such as insight generation, forecasting, and performance monitoring, you will see how thoughtfully selected and tailored tools can meet each project’s objectives, scale, complexity, and organizational context.
Applying data, analytics, and automated decision-support approaches, you will be able to interpret outputs, support informed decision-making, and enhance performance management, while examining limitations, risks, and ethical considerations associated with responsible use of technology.
