WEEK 1
¿Cómo y por qué inicia un proyecto?
¿Por qué iniciamos un proyecto? ¿cómo debemos iniciarlo? ¿es importante planearlo? ¿qué hacemos cuando ya lo estamos desarrollando? ¿por qué hay personas que se desarrollan profesionalmente en la gestión de proyectos?
En este primer curso podrás comprender la naturaleza de los proyectos y la manera como debes gestionarlos de principio a fin.

WEEK 2
¿Por qué es importante planear?
Es común que cuando iniciamos un proyecto, queramos comenzar inmediatamente con su ejecución, ¿verdad? La emoción por el resultado y la urgencia por realizar el proyecto cuanto antes nos atrapa y, en ocasiones, saltamos a la acción sin habernos dado el tiempo de pensar en todo lo que el proyecto requiere para completarse exitosamente, a todos nos ha pasado. Solo que es algo así como armar el barco mientras vamos nadando, ¿qué puede salir mal? ¡Todo!
La planeación te ayudará a preparar, prever, organizar, programar y estimar todo lo necesario para obtener el resultado esperado exitosamente. Con algunas guías básicas, podrás elaborar los planes para tus proyectos que te encaminen a mejorar tus resultados. En esta sección, conocerás los elementos y las herramientas básicas para la planeación de tus proyectos que podrás aplicar inmediatamente.

WEEK 3
¿Cómo coordinar un proyecto?
El éxito de los proyectos depende de la capacidad del equipo de trabajo para completar las tareas en forma efectiva y eficiente, así como de las habilidades del líder del equipo para guiarlo apropiadamente.
Presentaremos las ideas básicas sobre los conocimientos y las habilidades que el líder de un proyecto debe dominar para obtener resultados exitosos en un proyecto. En este tercer tema, conoceremos algunas técnicas para dar seguimiento al avance del proyecto y hacer ajustes en forma oportuna.

WEEK 4
¿Cuáles son los beneficios de ser un profesional de la administración de proyectos?
El mundo de la gestión profesional de proyectos, hoy por hoy, marca una diferencia en la evolución de las organizaciones y cada vez más, se demandarán profesionales en la disciplina. ¿Quieres ser uno de ellos?
En este último tema conocerás sobre la institución líder a nivel mundial en temas de gestión de proyectos, sus estándares y certificaciones con reconocimiento internacional y los beneficios que ofrece para ti y para tu organización. También comprenderás en qué consisten las certificaciones profesionales y sus requisitos para reconocer el valor y los beneficios que ofrecen gracias a los altos estándares de calidad que el instituto ha cuidado y perfeccionado a través de los años.

Good system management not only requires managing the systems themselves, but requires careful planning to make systems interact with each other, auditing of the systems once the systems are built, and proactive maintenance of all systems. Organizations also rely on organizational policies, such as Acceptable Use Policies to bolster the technical aspect of system management. This course explores many of the behind the scenes requirements of good system management.

“It depends.” That is what you’ll hear when asking about the U.S. university admission process. With over 4,000 universities in the United States and no standard application system, the U.S. admission process can be confusing for everyone, but especially for students applying from other countries. This course will help international students (non-U.S. citizens) and non-native English speakers navigate the U.S. university admission process by offering practical information about the documents and pieces that make up a U.S. university application. More importantly, admission officers will discuss how they use those pieces to decide who is accepted and who is denied, so that you can understand the process beyond the pieces.
