MSP

I’ve just heard from Pearce Mayfield that I have passed the Managing Successful Programmes practitioner qualification -although the result isn’t on the APMG/OGC site yet. #

Relocated from MSP blog at https://www.synesthesia.co.uk/msp/2006/10/17/mod-approach-to-benefits-realisation-management/ Update 1: As Nick Spargo points out in the comments these links are now dead. If anyone can point to the modern equivalent, that would be appreciated. Update 2: Matthew Davis points to https://www.aof.mod.uk/, but the specific link he posts is now dead.

I spent last week on the Managing Successful Programmes course. The trainers were good, the group size was good (9 of us), and the other delegates were an interesting and friendly bunch from a range of industries. Between us we covered print, broadcast and online media, telecomms, manufacturing, software, and a couple of flavours of consultancy. I’d recommend this course to anyone who was interested in MSP – the training is well-adapted for adult learning, and has a clear emphasis on providing the skills to get through the exams. #
