In this module, we will investigate the role of the project manager and look at the ways that generative AI can aid PMs in the completion of their tasks. We will also consider the wider issue of the overall impact that generative AI will have on project management.

Week 2: Good Practice, Tools, and Use

In this week, we'll take what we've learned in Week 1 and put it into practice. There will be exercises for you to complete using generative AI tools and scheduling and risk management. We'll also consider what the future might bring as AI starts to evolve and highlight what you might need to consider in regard to ethics and security.
