Abstract

Successful project management (PM), as one of the most important key competences in the western-oriented working world, is mainly influenced by experience and social skills As a direct impact on PM training, the degree of practice and reality is crucial for the application of lessons learned in a challenging everyday work life This work presents a recursive approach that adapts well-known principles of PM itself for PM training Over three years, we have developed a concept and an integrated software system that support our PM university courses Stepwise, it transfers theoretical PM knowledge into realistic project phases by automatically adjusting to the individual learning progress Our study reveals predictors such as degrees of collaboration or weekend work as vital aspects in the PM training progress The chosen granularity of project phases with variances in different dimensions makes our model a canonical incarnation of seamless learning
