ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Various techniques have evolved over the recent years that have helped project managers in maintaining their projects. Frameworks such as Lean Six Sigma, TOGAF®, PMP®, and PRINCE2® etc. are quite known ones. A new framework came up in 2008 known as the P3O or the Portfolio, Programme and Project Offices that has since helped in project management.
