Each and every recent innovation in Information Technology can be traced back to a project: the behind-the-scenes work that, when correctly managed, results in a new system, a new technology, or a new product in the marketplace. This text builds an unparalleled foundation for tomorrow’s creators and managers by providing meaningful examples of real projectsâ€â€both successful and failedâ€â€and applying the lessons they teach to a sound framework in IT project management. * Applies the widely-accepted PMBOK set of standards (Project Management Body of Knowledge) to the changing field of IT. * Includes a 120-day trial version of Microsoft Project 2000 and appendix, "A Guide to Microsoft Project 2000". * Features an extensive running case that puts skills into practice using real-world data from the files of Northwest Airlines. * End-of-chapter mini cases provide extra real-world reinforcement. * Offers complete preparation for CompTIA's IT Project + Certification
