Project management – approaches and tools
Trainers: Daniel Thomas Lopez
Overview: Project management in bioinformatics core services can be demanding as we can get a wide variety of projects in all shapes and sizes. Regardless of this, as managers, it is our responsibility to lay a clear organisation of the project by setting the right scope, manage communication with our users and multiple teams; make sure right resources are assigned to the project and ultimately, the project is finished in the promised time frame. In this interactive session, the group discussed some key project management practices, how they apply this to projects, and how to use project management practices to accelerate learning in their teams.
Learning outcomes:
By the end of this session you will be able to:
- Describe key elements of project management
