What you'll learn:

Writing and developing a superior project proposal contains multiple elements and is an extremely important part of the beginning stages of a good project. The developing project proposals course covers the development of project proposals by interested contractors in response to a customer’s request for proposal. When the customer decides which contractor to engage to perform the project, the customer and the contractor sign an agreement.

Concepts in this course support the following Project Management Knowledge Areas of the PMI Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide):

Project Procurement Management

This course is based on the PMBOK 6th edition, and may not fully prepare learners for the revised PMP exam. However, this course still qualifies for PDU's for any existing PMP to maintain their PMI certification.
