Being able to apply the project management skills you learn to a real world situation is
critical to becoming a project manager. Each project has its own unique challenges and
it is important to learn how to analyse and address them.
Change is almost inevitable in projects, and effective management of change is
necessary to enable a project to proceed as planned. Effective management of change
means subjecting all requests to the change control process, identifying all the impacts
of changes on the project objectives, and communicating project status to project
stakeholders as defined in the Communications and/or Stakeholder Management
Plan(s).

Tools utilised for the management of change can be manual or automated, and should
be selected as appropriate for each project. They need to meet the needs of
stakeholders as well as organisational and environmental factors.
