Conceptual project management is a crucial aspect of the whole project management process, and it is not confined to individuals with formally designated project management roles. In fact, many individuals who are not project managers can benefit from a thorough understanding of project management principles and procedures.

The "Project Management for Business and Support Teams" course is intended to provide a foundation in conceptual project management for those who may not have a formal project management function, but who must nevertheless participate in or contribute to project efforts. This could include team members, functional managers, or executives who are not directly responsible for project management but must understand how to perform effectively in a project context.

Non-project managers will obtain a greater understanding of the conceptual project management process and how to interact and cooperate successfully with project managers and other project team members by participating in this course.
