Effective and efficient communication will help optimize tasks in a work team"

In this Postgraduate diploma, students will be able to develop a set of skills that are essential to manage a technology project.

To do this, they should be aware of the different tasks that are assigned depending on their role in the team, starting with the position of the manager. They will also understand which regulations apply to this work, such as PRINCE2, which is a structured method that helps to divide the project into manageable phases, ensuring better control of the outcome.  

On the other hand, the planning of Technology Projects must include all the indispensable processes to ensure its successful completion. For this purpose, "scope management" must be performed by means of some methodologies such as Scope Creep and Gold Plating. In this program, students will learn how to create a work breakdown structure to identify each of these tasks.  

Likewise, after identifying each task, it will be time to communicate them orally and in writing. To achieve this objective, the syllabus addresses the importance of developing a communications plan and the dimensions it should achieve. Then, more technical aspects related to conscious broadcasting and active listening will be discussed, skills that will help create an empathetic, respectful, persuasive and credible message.  

With the knowledge provided in this Postgraduate diploma, the student will be able to make accurate, fast and effective decisions, which will be supported by a series of concrete data on the reality of the job.
