About this course

Understanding Project Management for your Newlane credit.

What is Project Management?

Project Management is the study of how to plan, organize, and complete work with a clear goal, deadline, and budget. In this course, you learn how projects move from an initial idea and business case through planning, execution, monitoring, and closure. It also covers the tools and decisions that help teams keep work on track and handle risks, costs, and changes.

How the course teaches you

This self-paced online course uses video lessons, quizzes, an assignment, and a final exam, with grading weighted at 20% Quizzes, 30% Assignment, and 50% Final Exam. When you complete it and the transcript is sent to Newlane University, the credit is recognized there as Social & Behavioral Science GE, so it can satisfy a general-education requirement in a Newlane degree plan.

How it helps beyond the classroom

Project management skills help you organize work, manage deadlines, and respond to change, which can be useful in both job settings and everyday responsibilities. At Newlane, the 3 credits may apply as Social & Behavioral Science GE within programs such as the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy, helping move you toward the 90-credit transfer ceiling.

Skills you walk away with

Writing a project business caseBuilding project plans and schedulesCreating budgets and cost estimatesUsing project planning and management toolsDrafting project proposals and RFPsManaging vendors and contractsMonitoring project progress and qualityConducting project closure and post-project review

Taking this course toward Newlane

After you finish Project Management, the transcript is sent to Newlane University for review. Newlane's registrar applies the credit as Social & Behavioral Science GE, which means it is used as a general-education equivalency rather than as an elective with no category. That can help reduce what remains in a Newlane degree plan, especially in programs like the Associate of Arts in Liberal Arts or the Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy. Newlane accepts up to 90 transfer credits, or 75% of a bachelor's degree, so this course fits within that transfer ceiling.

Who this course is for

This course is a practical fit for students who want to use one class to build transferable skills and also fill a Newlane general-education slot. It can make sense for degree-completion students and career changers who are planning around Newlane's 75% transfer limit, but it is not the best choice if you need a course that is already tied to a major-specific requirement rather than Social & Behavioral Science GE.
