Chapter Breakfast - Evolution of PM Curriculum
In recent years, the field of project management has encountered many changes. These changes include the growth of agile methods, expanding the field to include project-based work, and more recently, an increased focus on decoupling project management standards from a linear process.
As the field of project management continues to evolve and mature, project management education must adapt. In this presentation, we look at how changes to the field of project management are reflected in the project management curriculum and how we prepare future project managers.
