RIA’s Project Management Course, a prerequisite option for all three RIA pillar designation courses (WLS, CLS, FLS), will bring you through the full life cycle and flow of a project, from when the phone rings to cashing the check. It centres around the framework of project management but relates the information back to the industry in a very relevant way that would benefit any project manager. You will learn tips and tricks to enhance your understanding of how to think ahead, plan effectively, and manage a well-organised and successful project.

This course is being held both in person at the RIA Inc. Conference and via Zoom. Our chief instructor Craig Powers will be joining leading via Zoom and we will have Australian CR’s Owen and Christine Boak in person to assist with training and in class interaction.
