Training

In line with my previous post about supporting other project management trainers who do good work, I bring you Dick Billows.

This video on the Work Breakdown Structure shows that his approach is in line with my philosophy.  It is in line with the training I provide through WBS Coach and pmStudent e-Learning.  I haven’t experienced his training first-hand, but based on this video I can tell the information you would get from Dick is going to be quality.

So watch this short video from Dick and check out his links below the video if you are interested in training.  Regardless of whether you choose my training or Dick’s, or anyone else’s, be sure you are getting trained by someone who knows what they are talking about and presents the training to you in a way that works for you.
