Module 05 Overview

Module 5 introduces the concepts of the project estimation and planning.  Once requirements have been determined and the vendor and solution have been selected, it is time to plan the project implementation.  We will begin with a work breakdown structure which breaks the project into blocks of work.  We use that to estimate our timeline and plan the project.  This module has 2 major group assignments which are allowed 2 weeks each - Module 4 is a 4 week (not 2 week) long module.
