Project management is perhaps the oldest form of management, going all the way back to the building of the pyramids and beyond. In its modern form, project management is the art and practice of managing time-limited operations in terms of four constraints: time, cost, resources and specification. Intense global competition has intensified the importance of completing a project in the most effective and efficient manner, making project management the preferred management technique of many modern organizations.

Job candidates with the skills to identify priorities, organize assignments and deploy the resources to accomplish projects on time and on budget are in-demand. Project management has become one of the most sought-after skills in today’s fast-paced, bottom-line-focused world.
