With Planforge, we can now offer our students a tool that supports all the necessary project phases from our curriculum and is perfectly aligned with the IPMA standard we teach. Our students also gain a more practical understanding of how to apply project management principles using professional PM software.
The University of Applied Sciences FH CAMPUS 02 is enhancing its project management practices through the "Education Partnership" with Planforge.
The university's current project management setup relies solely on Microsoft 365 applications such as Planner, Teams, SharePoint, OneNote, and Outlook.
While these tools are widely used, there is a need to align project management processes with the International Project Management Association (IPMA) standards taught at the institution.
The university also wants to provide students with more hands-on project management training.
FH CAMPUS 02 is addressing these challenges by partnering with Planforge. Planforge offers a comprehensive solution that is aligned with the IPMA standard and provides the desired standardized approach to project management. The implementation of Planforge also eliminates the need for multiple tools and interfaces.
As part of the implementation, FH CAMPUS 02 and Planforge prepare students for their practical projects by incorporating instructional videos on using Planforge effectively.
These videos guide students through the practical use of Planforge in different project phases, including project initiation, coordination, controlling and completion.
University lecturers are available to students during the practical projects in online Q&A sessions. These interactive sessions provide real-time support and training for students to successfully complete their projects using Planforge.
