PRiSM™ (PRojects integrating Sustainable Methods) is our sustainability based project delivery method that incorporates tangible tools and methods to manage the balance between finite resources, social responsibility, and delivering sustainable project outcomes. PRiSM focuses on principles, benefits, systems thinking, and competence building.

This project management course provides an introduction to best practices, sustainability principles and governance in order to maximize value. It provides an introduction of the need to align benefits with strategic objectives. This practice ensures that each project positions the organization for long-term growth and success. By using this process will provide positive impacts to the economic, environmental, and social bottom lines of the organization. This course is designed to deepen your understanding and competence in project management sustainable practices. We use the Andragogic approach that blends traditional instruction with very hands on exercises, simulations, and case studies.

You will learn what sustainability methods can apply to your projects, all the aspects of sustainability, where to include them in a project plan and how they can integrate into your everyday company practices.

Our program covers the core practices and principles of project management with an emphasis on environmental, fiscal and social responsibility using a series of hands‐on exercises, based on real world scenarios, adhering to the UN Global Compact’s 10 Principles, UN Sustainable Development Goals.

This course is for organizations or individuals requiring a sustainable approach to managing projects or aligning strategic initiatives for sustainability with projects. Common roles include Project, Program, Portfolio Managers, Sustainability Professionals, however individuals who are going to perform as a team manager or in a project/change support role will gain benefit from this course.
