Don't want to take a bootcamp class to learn the fundamental of PMI Project Management or INCOSE Systems Engineering? You've come to the right place! Learn the Minimum Viable Knowledge (MVK) necessary to know what Project Managers and their counterparts - Technical Leads/ Project Engineers/ Systems Engineers, etc. - want and expect. Learn PMI and INCOSE terminology so you can apply it appropriately in your workflow and ensure consistent language across contracts, procurements, and system deployments.

Takeaway

Learn standard words and phrases, and their meanings mapped to typical industry terminology.
Understand which roles do what things and how they interface and interact to one another.
Apply learnings to technology procurements and vendor contracts so that the "whole team" can communicate together.
