Project Management 101: From Foundations to Career

About this path

This learning path is built from the 'PROJECT MANAGEMENT 101' playlist by YOU Discovery. It walks you through the core areas of project management in a logical order: starting with the basics and the project life cycle, then diving into planning, scope, cost, risk, quality, resources, and agile methods. Later lessons cover communication, change, monitoring, closure, tools, and career advice. Each video is a self-contained class, so you can learn at your own pace. The path ends with a capstone project to apply what you've learned. No prior experience is needed.
