More about this course
  • In this guided project students will learn how to build a WBS for their project
  • Students will decompose their project into the main elements, then further decompose those into even smaller, more manageable pieces of work
  • As they decompose their project into smaller elements, they will be using decomposition rules such as the 100%, and the mutually exclusive elements rules
  • Continue decomposition until you get elements that can be estimated properly and that they can delegate to a person or a team

Other: It was great to learn about the project management: WBS thru Coursera. It helped me to understand how we can plan the project activity properly and avoid any misses with objectives. With work breakdown structure, we list down all possible activities required for project execution and schedule them basis which it becomes much easy to assure project success.
