Overview
Have your change initiatives fallen at the first hurdle because your business cases fail to convince senior management of return on investment? You’re not alone.
Creating effective business cases and spending proposals is critical to securing funding and management buy-in. This means it’s important that you develop your capabilities in creating, reviewing and adapting effective business cases.
To avoid wasting time on costly and ineffective projects, it is also important that those responsible for scrutinising business cases, recognise the aspirational, but achievable and realistic objectives of any proposal.
Our two and a half-day course covers the innovative APMG certification and is based on the ‘Five Case Model’ – the UK’ government’s best practice approach to developing spending proposals and enabling effective business decisions.
With a step-by-step guide to developing a business case through a systematic and objective approach, leave the day fully qualified at Better Business Case Foundation Level and confident in your ability to plan, manage and deliver better business cases.
This course is aimed at professionals with responsibility for the successful delivery of programmes and projects or tasked with developing a business case for investment.
