the most important skills an event professional
can develop. Taking the time and trouble to
prepare for an unlikely emergency may seem
unnecessary, but saving even one life or avoiding
a calamity will make the effort worthwhile. Event
planners must take an active role in implementing
procedures to protect attendees. The class will
prepare you to use strategies to mitigate risks
before they happen, and to create a plan in the
case of emergencies. You will also learn about
the ADA (American with Disabilities Act) and how
it relates to risk management. TWA

Earned Value Management
Earned Value (EV) is a management tool for
tracking and communicating a project’s status.
Earned Value Management (EVM) will let you
know the actual state of the project by comparing
your current project performance against your
plan. Knowing the project’s performance will let
you take actions needed to ensure that the project
is completed on time and within budget. Like
any tool, in order for EVM to be successful, it is
very important that it is used correctly. Earned
Value is one of the most sophisticated and
accurate methods for measuring and controlling
project schedules and budgets. EV has been
used extensively in large projects, especially in
government projects. PMI® is a strong supporter
of the EV approach because of its ability to
accurately monitor the schedule and cost
variances for complex projects. Learn more about
this powerful, highly respected technique, how to
use it effectively, and how to create the desired
reports for senior management and customers.

Efficient Project Management with
Mind Mapping
Mind mapping is an effective project management
tool to save time and improve communication with
the team and other stakeholders in an effective

diagram consisting of nodes, branches, colors,
and icons used to convey ideas efficiently. They
are simple to create and understand, and are
often used to focus brainstorming sessions
and work breakdown structure creation. Learn
how to create and apply mind maps in project
management and get links to a variety of free
templates that you can use immediately to get
started with mind maps. This powerful project
management technique can be used for strategic
planning, requirements, work breakdown
structure, risk identification, accelerated learning,
and project planning. If you are interested in
using mind mapping as an alternative to (or
enhancement of) project management software,
this course is a good place to start. (4 PDUs)

Risk Management
Imagine preventing 90 percent of your project
problems. How much could you improve project
quality, cost, and schedule? Risk management is
a project management methodology that includes
risk planning, identification, qualification, risk
response development, and control. Business and
project managers need to understand what risks
they face and adopt strategies for incorporating
those opportunities into effective project
management. This course includes techniques
from international risk research and worldwide
contributors, templates you can adapt and use in
your projects, hundreds of risks and risk categories
to help you identify risks, and a methodology to
prevent many project problems. Project managers,
project team members, technical staff, and
managers can benefit from the risk management
techniques and templates in this course. Since the
course also covers the basics of risk management,
it is also useful for those preparing for the PMI®
certification exams. (15 PDUs). This course is

Want to improve your math placement?
Then get on the FAST TRACK!
FAST TRACK is a 20-hour review course, covering prealgebra and elementary
algebra topics, that prepares qualified students to potentially improve their
math course placement. Students should have a history of being successful in
equivalent levels of math, although they may not recall enough information to
place well on the assessment test. All students must take the assessment test
before the first day of class (call 240-567-7459 for information).
Advanced Fast Track is also a 20-hour
review course, but covers elementary algebra
and intermediate algebra topics. To take
Advanced Fast Track, students must have
scored 55 or better on the Accuplacer Algebra
test, or successfully completed MATH080 or
successfully completed basic Fast Track.

GENERAL INFORMATION
◘Co-listeD Classes
Classes marked with this symbol ◘ are
co-listed. They are offered so that students
may register either for credit or continuing
education (noncredit) status. Co-listing gives
students an option to choose the best path for
their educational needs. Each section includes
both credit and noncredit students. For students
seeking credit classes, please consult the
credit course schedule. The expectations for
attendance, participation, and effort are the same
for all students. Instructors will announce policies
concerning class activities.
If you have registered as a noncredit student in
a co-listed course and you wish to change from
noncredit to credit status, you will have one day
after the class has begun to do so. After that, you
are committed to your path as a noncredit student
for the remainder of the course. If the course
has a required assessment level to be a credit
student, you must first complete the assessment
testing and meet the appropriate assessment
level before you can change to credit status.
Dates for co-listed classes may reflect the actual
credit term dates. Please check the day on your
calendar for the actual start date of your class.
