Afternoon guys,
I work for an Engineering company as a Production Control Manager, in charge of planning engineers and the management of projects etc. I have built up to this role just through working here and have no formal training.
My work have agreed to pay for me to be trained and to gain a suitable project management qualification, and have asked me to research and put forward ideas as to which would be the best.
The one that immediately sprang to mind is a Prince2. Research shows there are a couple of others to consider too: APMP and PMP....does anyone here have any experience of any of these courses, or perhaps others? Ideally looking for people that work in the engineering industry.
To give you an idea of our company: We are a sub contract machine and fabrication engineers, no internal design team but do manage projects...we are heavy engineers with a bias towards precision industries like Nuclear, Defense, Power Generation, Oil and Sub Sea, making large parts to tight tolerances with strict material controls etc.
Any help is appreciated
Thanks,
Tom.
