The Language of Emerging Technologies for Project Managers (ET4PM)
Course number: CGIET4PM40
Project Managers are routinely being asked to step outside of their comfort zones and manage teams and projects on emerging technologies that they may not be familiar with. While PMs may not necessarily need a deep dive into the advanced aspects of technologies like Artificial Intelligence, Data Science, and IoT, it can be extremely helpful to understand the specific terms associated with each of these disciplines. In Emerging Technologies for Project Managers, PMs will become familiar with common industry terms inside the disciplines of AI, DS, and IoT. Additionally, they will learn how to appropriately scope out projects in these disciplines, as well as understand how to plan for a variety of factors within their control, such as time, costs, and risks commonly associated with AI, DS, and IoT.
Course Objective:
Upon successful completion of this course, you will be able to pass your Emerging Technologies micro credential and will have a good understanding of managing projects in the fields of AI, DS, and IoT.
