Het lesprogramma

The Technical Project Management training course focuses on managing projects within a technical environment. You will learn how projects are structured, which phases they go through and what role you fulfil within them. The training course combines project management methodologies with practice-based insights, helping you gain better control over scope, planning, risks, communication and budget monitoring in technical projects.

The training course is built around three core areas:

Structure

  • Project definition and project plan

  • Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)

  • Phasing, planning and control of time, cost, quality and risk

Collaboration and communication

  • Stakeholders and role division

  • Communication within projects

  • Feedback, behaviour and collaboration within teams

Practical application

  • Working with your own project cases

  • Analysis of practical bottlenecks

Technical Report Writing

Personal Effectiveness Training Courses 2 half-day sessions Rotterdam

In technische omgevingen is schriftelijke communicatie geen bijzaak, maar een cruciaal onderdeel van het werk. Rapportages, inspectieverslagen en adviezen vormen de basis voor belangrijke besluitvorming. Toch ervaren veel engineers dat hun rapportages te lang worden of onvoldoende overtuigen, ondanks hun sterke inhoudelijke kennis. Met de training schriftelijke rapportage van Dosign Academy leer je technische informatie helder, compact en logisch vastleggen. Zo voorkom je fouten en vertraging, en maak je van schrijven een functioneel en effectief onderdeel van je werk.

DISC for Technical Professionals; recognising and influencing behaviour in practice

Personal Effectiveness Training Courses 2 half-day sessions Rotterdam

In technical projects, a great deal of attention is paid to content, planning and execution. Yet in practice, projects do not always get stuck because of technical issues. Behaviour often plays a greater role than expected. Differences in pace, communication style and response patterns can cause conversations to become difficult, expectations to remain unspoken and decisions to be delayed or avoided. DISC makes this behaviour visible.

In this training course, we do not approach DISC as a model you need to memorise, but as a practical tool for understanding collaboration more effectively. You work with your own DISC profile and gain insight into how you communicate, respond and make decisions, especially in situations where pressure increases or interests differ. From that insight, you learn to recognise behaviour in others. You learn to pick up signals during conversations and better understand why someone responds in a certain way.

As a result, you will recognise more quickly where communication breaks down and what is needed to steer the conversation back in the right direction.
