More Fun with the STS Online Course on Project Management

    LAUSANNE, SWITZERLAND, March 04, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The e-learning course "PM Fundamentals" is the ideal learning tool for anyone who will contribute to or manage a project. It gives students, project team members, and future project managers the ability to acquire essential knowledge on project management and to become familiar with common practices, processes, and tools. With this course, the self-directed acquisition of project management knowledge is even more fun thanks to videos, illustrations, and interactivity.

The content of this course takes into account widely acknowledged best practices of project management. All of the lessons have been adapted to recent changes in project management standards. They correspond to the new edition of the PMBOK Guide as well as to the requirements of the International Project Management Association (IPMA) framework.

"Learning must also be fun," says Patrick Lehmann, senior project manager and instructional designer at STS. "Therefore, further emphasis has been given to a better media mix by expressing parts of the content through animations and video-examples as well as illustrating graphs and pictures". Refined illustrations, short animated introductions, and hundreds of exercises make the online course a unique learning experience - far beyond text-heavy books. Of course, this new version also runs on tablet computers.
