Overview

Don’t have the time or budget for full training? Become aware of Kepner-Tregoe Potential Problem Analysis with this introductory course. KT’s Potential Problem Analysis (PPA) tool has been used for over 60 years to mitigate risk. While your company may use robust risk management tools, PPA is practical thinking to avoid unexpected problems and the damage they can cause. Use it anytime, when managing projects, launching new products and making decisions. In this 45-minute, self-paced course, you will be introduced to KT PPA and complete a short knowledge assessment. This course can't replace workshop training, but you will learn about the skills confident decision- makers use to manage risk.
