课程概述

This is the second course in the Google Project Management Certificate program. In this course, you will discover how to set a project up for success in the first phase of the project life cycle: the project initiation phase. As you explore the key components of this phase, you will learn how to determine a project’s benefits and costs, create measurable project goals and deliverables, manage project scope, and measure a project’s success criteria. You will learn how to define project roles and responsibilities, complete a stakeholder analysis, and utilize RACI charts. You will also learn the typical resources needed to manage a project, practice developing a project charter, and evaluate various project management tools. Current Google project managers will continue to instruct you in how to accomplish all of these tasks, describing the right tools and resources for the job at hand. Learners who complete this program should be equipped to apply for introductory-level jobs as project managers. No previous experience is necessary. By the end of this course, you will be able to: - Understand the significance of the project initiation phase of the project life cycle. - Describe the key components of the project initiation phase. - Determine a project’s benefits and costs. - Define and create measurable project goals and deliverables. - Define project scope and differentiate among tasks that are in-scope and out-of-scope. - Understand how to manage scope creep to avoid impacting project goals. - Define and measure a project’s success criteria. - Complete a stakeholder analysis and explain its significance. - Utilize RACI charts to define and communicate project team member responsibilities. - Understand the key components of project charters and develop a project charter for project initiation. - Evaluate various project management tools to meet project needs....

This has been a good learning experience. I now know the different project management tools available. I have a good understanding of project initiation and how to determine the success of a project.

I felt it was too long-winded and repetitive, but it didn't focus enough on CERTAIN things instead. I have never used any of these tools for example (and ALWAYS Hated Excel, so google sheets isn't my ideal either) and REALLY felt it needed much clearer definition and clarification criteria to make me understand their capabilities for example. The Project Charter on Plant Pals JuAnn did in Module 4 at the end, she should've done while she was explaining The Project Charter and all it's facets with vigor...not later (sort of but not REALLY as alll these concepts are simultaneous really in PM to be honest and must be known like the back of your hand, not writing it their way but UNDERSTANDING the concept to move on!!) so that was a bit random. Also, the Project Proposal was what, three lines altogether?? and the Executive Summary was overlooked except in one activity. Moreover, Scope is really hard to grasp yes... but it is SOOOOO important I could NEVER stress that enough. Repetition and not clarification there too. The definition of goals and objectives were mixed up due to Smart Goal and OKR learning ( i realise english has a limited lexicon! goal can mean several things as a GOAL) and the comeaway after much talking and reading was that Success Criteria was that "everyone interprets it differently".?! OBviously. Give more concrete examples then! Resources can also be deliverables. This is confusing. A MArketing Manual is a resource, but it IS a Deliverable primarily. This can cause Ambiguity and confusion for many people. Stakeholders bit was alright. Smart Goals they invented attainable/achievable to make SMART as a word acronym, because Relevant/realistic and Achieveable was not sufficient for Google or PMI! They intertwine very well. OKRs were ok but again, 1 objective a few key results. This makes one wonder why KPI's are so common in the rest of OTHER workplaces were no PM's are to be found. I know the difference of course, but it wasn't outlined well HERE. RACI was OK. There was a brilliant part explained, then the same process i mention above happened again. so, Tools was a bit of a bust, and the repetition ...but repeating the same things and Omitting things that ought to be ELABORATED further through a MINIMUM of repetition was a real let down. Luckily JuAnn looks like a compassionate, sweet, very capable and knowledgeable person who i'm sure EXCELS at her job... and her soft reassuring voice was easy to listen to in the videos. But it went on too long. JUST LIKE THIS MESSAGE. and I've read PLANNING is JUST as bad if not WORSE in dragging on. Hopefully it drags on with reinforcing things and not repeating the known!!!! sorry. It's true though. All in all though, I obviously learned a TON of stuff. However, overall, I found it interesting and informative but the repetition and crucial omissions did my head in. This CAN'T be an easy "course" or "certificate" to teach, I reallise that FULLY. PM takes YEARS and SERIOUS exams. This feels like fluff in comparison, but at least we are being exposed to the basics even if they want it the GOOGLE WAY and aren't as interested in us RETAINING the ACTUAL KNOWLEDGE! oh well. Most Courses (and High School!) are like that.
