About This Course

This class teaches students how to identify key stakeholders, develop stakeholder relationships, create a plan for leading a team of multiple stakeholders to complete a project, and facilitating team discussions.

The class is designed for professionals and emerging leaders who want to strengthen their team leadership skills by learning how to run a project that spans multiple teams and departments.

No specific prior knowledge is required. However, the class is built on the assumption that students have an actual upcoming or current project to which they can apply the course lessons.

The skills learned in the class can be used to improve stakeholder participation on a small existing team all the way up to managing large, on-going projects.

Note: This class does not teach general stakeholder "engagement" tactics, which is often aligned with marketing and ultimately doing more business with clients. While that topic is clearly an important one, this class does not take that approach. In contrast, the class is essentially about developing critical relationships and leading a team of stakeholders on a project.

Credit Information

Is this course eligible for my CPD requirements as a Canadian CPA?

Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.

Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
