About the Advanced Project Management Course
This advanced project management course is one step up from our beginners’ project management course. This means that the materials offer a more challenging and in depth view into the world of project management. Students enrolling on this course can expect to expand on their previous knowledge of this topic and become successful and efficient leaders.
During the course of their project management training with Stonebridge College, students will complete five informative modules. These online units aim to teach students all they need to know about topics including: project planning, finances and resources, quality and risk, and people and communications.
Who should study this course?
This project management certification has been specifically designed for individuals who have already completed our project management course and want to further their understanding. It is also suitable for those who have some lived experience of project management who want to improve their practice.
Students do not need any formal qualifications or proven experience before enrolling on this home learning course. All we ask is that they have an interest in the topic, a way to access our home study materials and the motivation to engage in independent study.
What happens after the course?
On successful completion of this distance learning qualification, students will have gained an in depth understanding of project management and the skills involved in this career. Students will be able to take these skills, and channel them into future job roles.
Even if our graduates do not become project managers, there are plenty of areas in which these skills will come in handy. Professions which are related to this advance project management course include, but are not limited to:
- Project manager
- Team manager
- Manager

This means that Stonebridge Associated Colleges has undergone an external quality check to ensure that the organisation and the courses it offers, meet defined quality criteria. The completion of this course alone does not lead to a regulated qualification* but may be used as evidence of knowledge and skills gained.

The Quality Licence Scheme endorsement involves robust and rigorous quality audits by external auditors to ensure quality is continually met. A review of courses is carried out as part of the endorsement process.
The Quality Licence Scheme is part of the Skills and Education Group, a charitable organisation that unites education and skills-orientated organisations that share similar values and objectives.

We are committed to helping employers, organisations and learners cultivate the relevant skills for learning, skills for employment, and skills for life.
Our knowledge and experience of working within the awarding sector enables us to work with training providers, through the Quality Licence Scheme, to help them develop high-quality courses and/or training programmes for the non-regulated market.
