Within this context, we provide labs so that you are well prepared to study in BU MET\u2019s graduate courses.<\/p>\n<p>The PM100 Lab, free to BU MET graduate students, will help you be successful in your project management courses, in particular, AD 642, Project Management. You will learn and practice with essential PM terminology and tools and be presented with the latest standards from PMI\u00ae \u2013 the Project Management Institute. The lab is actually \u201cAssignment 0\u201d of AD 642, and you need to gain the PM100 \u201cbadge\u201d before the completion of AD 642. Think of it as a \u201cco-requisite\u201d to be completed alongside, not necessarily before, AD642. It also enables the AD 642 course to move more swiftly, since all students will have been exposed to the foundational terms and framework of PM.<\/p>\n<h2>You\u2019ll get a lot out of PM100:<\/h2>\n<p>PM100 provides you with the opportunity to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>engage with your faculty<\/li>\n<li>start to use the tools that you will encounter in A D642, in particular Microsoft Project and TreePlan through the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/metit\/services\/client-technology\/virtual-lab\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BU MET Virtual Labs<\/a><\/li>\n<li>gain familiarity with the Blackboard environment, which is used extensively at BU MET<\/li>\n<li>attain a PM100 badge \u2014 an electronic credential that is useful at BU and with employers<\/li>\n<li>be automatically enrolled in PM 200, which accompanies AD 646, Portfolio and Program Management<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Self-paced laboratory or Instructor-led<\/h2>\n<p>PM100 is available in both as a Self-Paced Lab (SPL) or in an instructor-led format. In either case, there are narrated slide sets and exercises. During the Spring and Fall Semesters, the SPL allows students to complete the lab on their own for the purposes of the co-requisite for AD 642 \u2013 and allows any BU MET student \u2013 even those who have already earned their badge \u2013 to \u2018poke around\u2019 and learn about PM or to refresh their foundational knowledge of PM.<\/p>\n<h2>How to pass PM100<\/h2>\n<p>As a student in AD 642, Project Management, you will be automatically enrolled in PM100. Once enrolled, you can complete it by taking the End-of-Unit Tests successfully, or, if you consider yourself a veteran PM practitioner, you can take the Qualifier Quiz and if you score a 10, 11, or 12 out of 12 on that Quiz, you will have earned the PM100 badge.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Register and Access PM100<\/h2>\n<p>The Self-Paced and Instructor-led laboratories are only available if you have a BU identification number and email address.<br \/>\n<div class=\"bu_collapsible_container \" aria-live=\"polite\" data-customize-animation=\"false\"><h3 class=\"bu_collapsible\" aria-expanded=\"false\"tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\">Option 1: Students without BU ID and Kerberos account<\/h3><div class=\"bu_collapsible_section\" style=\"display: none;\"><br \/>\nIf you are a newly accepted student of the Project Management graduate program but have not received your BU identification number and email address, please complete the following steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Navigate to the following site to request a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/tech\/services\/security\/iam\/authentication\/kerberos\/kerberos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">computing account<\/a>.
