Description
Projects are temporary endeavours undertaken by humans to create unique products, services or results. The Australian Defence Organisation uses formal project management concepts and procedures in addressing the materiel element of approved requirements for military capability. The Project Management Institute has codified evolving project management practice in the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK) which underpins the Australian Defence Organisation’s guidance to defence project managers. The Project Management (CTMP) course is intended to provide Defence staff (both military and civilian) with a foundation for on-going development as professional project managers. To this end the Project Management (CTMP) course establishes a framework of project management concepts and principles that is based on PMBOK, cognisant of defence circumstances, informed by defence project experience but adaptable by managers to specific project requirements.
