I learned about Project Scope Management and Project Scope Management Processes. Read further to get more of what I learned about these two.

What is Project Scope Management?

Project Scope Management is a combination of the following:

• Scope can refer to all the work involved in creating the products and the processes used to create them.
• A Deliverable is a product as part of a project, such as hardware or software, planning documents, or meeting minutes.
• Project scope management includes the processes involved in defining and controlling what is or is not included in a project.

Project Scope Management Processes are:

• Scope Planning - This phase is when you are deciding how the scope will be defined, verified and controlled.
• Scope Definition - Reviewing the project charter and preliminary scope statement and adding more information as requirements are developed and change requests are approved.
• Creating a WBS - Subdividing the major project deliverables into smaller, more manageable components.
• Scope Verification - Formalizing acceptance of the project scope.
• Scope Control - Controlling changes to project scope.

 I'd also like to touch base on WBS which is a deliverable-oriented grouping of the work involved in a project that defines the total scope of the project. A WBS is a document that provides the basis for planning and managing project schedules, costs, resources, and changes.

I also learned how to make a Gantt Chart. An example of a gantt chat below:
