Project management methodologies as an aid for training purposes

Abstract

This dissertation refers to the prospect of application of project management methodologies as an aid for training purposes. This area of research is closely related to my profession, as long as I work with several companies as an instructor in seminars and training activities. More specifically I studied the literature review on the specific research area, and then conducted a quantitative analysis on evaluation data that were provided by participants in a series of seminars regarding Microsoft Excel Expert program. The evaluation data included evaluation of my performance, my characteristics, as well as organizational issues in respect with the seminar (program, content, material, premises). The analysis provided some interesting results, which in turn guided me in concluding some project management methodologies that –as proved by my research- can significantly aid training activities.
