What makes the Master Your Project Genius 5.0 course special and what value does it provide?

The Master Your Project Genius 5.0 course is truly exceptional because it combines live instructor-led sessions with access to our knowledge base through AI tools, plus numerous other valuable features that other solutions don't offer at such a high quality level. Beyond live training, the programme includes microlearning videos, templates, frameworks, Talent Dynamics assessments, and practical tools that you can implement immediately. This comprehensive combination delivers exceptional value and ensures real advancement in project management using cutting-edge technologies and methodologies.

What is the online training format for the Master Your Project Genius 5.0 course?

The course consists of four half-day online sessions that blend interactive lectures, small group exercises, and self-directed study. This format allows you to effectively combine theoretical concepts with practical application, ensuring intensive and effective learning. Additionally, the programme includes a bonus 60-minute online Q&A session and an introductory 60-minute onboarding session at the course start.

Why is online training more effective than face-to-face training?

Online training proves more effective due to the opportunity for repeated sessions and ongoing interaction between participants, which enhances social learning. In an online environment, you can better implement a model where you practice new techniques in real-world situations between lessons and then receive immediate feedback. This approach enables more intensive and effective learning. Additionally, you master digital tools and artificial intelligence applications directly within the training environment. The benefits extend far beyond these core advantages.

What are the benefits of learning digital tools and AI in an online format?

The online format enables participants to work directly with digital tools and AI applications. You can immediately apply these technologies to your own projects and receive real-time feedback - something that's challenging to achieve in traditional face-to-face training. These technologies save time, boost productivity, and help resolve project challenges as they arise.

How does AI integration work during the course?

As part of the course, you receive complimentary access to the ShineStarlight portal, where you'll find specially trained SHINE AI avatars that provide proven practices and targeted guidance across different areas of project management. The AI remains available 24/7 to assist you at every stage of your project—from initial planning through final execution.

What is Talent Dynamics and how will it benefit my project work?

Talent Dynamics helps you gain deeper insights into yourself and your team members. It provides guidance on improving team communication and allocating tasks based on each member's natural strengths and talents. As part of the course, you'll complete a comprehensive assessment that reveals your dominant talents, and based on these results, you'll receive personalized recommendations for effective task delegation and team leadership.

How does self-directed learning work in the course and why is it essential?

Self-directed learning is the component where participants engage with content between online sessions through concise videos and interactive assessments. This approach enables better preparation for practical exercises and enhances the effectiveness of live training sessions, resulting in more intensive learning and improved real-world application.

What tools and templates are included in the course?

Throughout the course, you'll gain access to templates, checklists, and guides that you can implement immediately in your projects. You'll also receive a sample Mural board to streamline your planning and team collaboration processes. Additionally, we'll provide hands-on training with specific digital tools and artificial intelligence applications within the Microsoft and Google ecosystems.

How long do I retain access to the materials after course completion?

All materials, session notes, assessments, and assignments remain accessible for three months following course completion. This extended access allows you to revisit content and deepen your practical knowledge, supporting the long-term development of your project management capabilities.

What specific software tools are covered in the programme?

We will train and demonstrate a range of specific digital tools, the use of artificial intelligence and automation in Microsoft, Google and OpenAI ecosystems. The tools will be trained from the position of a project manager in several areas:

1) Digital collaboration area: MS Teams, Zoom, Mural/Miro, Fireflies, Loom and others

2) Project coordination area: MS Planner, Freelo, MindManager and others
