Thinking Portfolio launches Portfolio Management eAcademy, an online course on project portfolio management, open to all and in clearly explained language. The learning environment is open to everyone and is free of charge. Currently, eAcademy offers online courses on project portfolio management in English, Finnish, Swedish, German and Dutch. Thinking Portfolio is developing eAcademy in response to user feedback.
The online portfolio management course is designed to be practical and targeted at decision-makers, project owners and project managers who are considering or preparing to implement a project portfolio. The course is also ideal for organisations where the project portfolio has already been introduced as a useful knowledge package on the basics of portfolio management. Participants can attend the course sections they are interested in.
The course consists of three lessons, the first focusing on portfolio management, the second on project management and the third on project portfolio implementation. The course is not an alternative to a certification but participants, after completing the course, can download a certificate. This shows that the participant has gone through the entire content of the course and completed the required tasks.
The course takes approximately two hours to complete, including assignments.
The course can be accessed on the website after registration:
