Validate and Control Scope (PMI - PMP)

Project Management Professional Certification Program (PMI-PMP)

What you'll learn:

• Recognize key activities performed during the Validate Scope process

• Distinguish between Validate Scope and Control Quality processes
• Identify the outputs of the Validate Scope process
• Understand the purpose of the Control Scope process
• Identify inputs to the Control Scope process
• Recognize activities in the variance analysis technique
• Recognize examples of outputs of the Control Scope process

The Validate and Control Scope (PMI - PMP) is course 8 of 28 of the Project Management Professional Certification Program (PMI-PMP). The course is aligned with the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK6) developed by the Project Management Institute (PMI).

There are three priorities you'll have as project manager. To make sure your projects meets stakeholder expectations and to make sure the project comes in on time and on budget.

In this course you'll learn about two processes that help you meet those obligations, validate scope and control scope. In validate scope, you formalize acceptance of the scope by all parties. And in control scope you manage changes to the scope baseline. Both of these processes are critical to project success.
