good book for 2 days project management training program
By Algin Erozan
This book is really good one to prepare especially for 1 day and 2 days project management training session. It contains slides and other docs. You can also easily create your own content.

Great Book!
By Izumi Koh
I am developing/conducting my first Project Management Training class. This book provides course outlines for 1/2 day - 2 day class, including instructor notes. I will only need to modify a few slides for our company specific needs. This saved me a lot of time.
I highly recommend this book!
