This is a great resource in estimating the cost of eLearning in Higher Ed.

I liked this discussion about making a budget.

Hi Peggy. Sorry I didn't know about this link before I began the Cost Analysis for our team project. Thanks for the information.

It's so true that not all costs can be measured in dollars.

Yup - the same people who publish the books in that series provide a free online resource with specific topics (e.g., "developing meaningful project objectives," "performing a cost-benefit analysis," "how to plan project execution"). It's not the PMBOK, but it's an easy to use and easy to digest collection of good information.

This looks like a great resource to learn project management from scratch. Since so many details go into project management, I think this would be the ideal reference for me, since it breaks it down for the novices. Thanks for sharing!
