Course Overview

This Managing Successful Programmes (MSP) Virtual Classroom training{i_location} course was developed as a solution to create a solution for executing business transformational change. Over time it has become an internationally recognised program management methodology.

Our MSP Foundation & Practitioner training course is delivered by Virtual Classroom with our expert trainers, who will help you learn and successfully demonstrate industry best practice in project management and business strategy execution.
