Technical Program Management: Governance & Oversight

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. The technical program manager must consider the organization's governance framework and structure, as well as the program environment. This includes interpreting processes, rules, and regulations to ensure compliance with the program. In this course, you will explore the framework for effective program management, including the governance hierarchy. You will focus on key environmental factors that can impact program governance and learn how to collaborate with the project management office (PMO), regulating bodies, and committees. Next, you will examine concepts of team structure, culture, and norms. Then you will find out how to support transparency and accountability, and how to promote data privacy, security, and ethics. You will identify governance activities across the program life cycle, investigate how to prioritize Lean program governance, and how to practice efficient documentation and knowledge management. Finally, you will complete a self-assessment for Lean readiness.
