Project DPro Templates: Frequently Asked Questions
What are Project DPro templates?
Project DPro templates are ready-made documents for the Project DPro Guide 2nd Edition. You use them to plan, run and close a project without starting from a blank page.
How many Project DPro templates are there?
There are 43 Project DPro templates, free as PDFs. They match the Project DPro Guide 2nd Edition.
Can I use these Project DPro templates for exam study?
Yes. Filling in a template on a practice project helps you remember the ideas. It also prepares you for the Project DPro (PMD Pro) exam.
Do I need an account to download Project DPro templates?
No. The PDFs need no sign-up. For Word versions, see how else you could contribute.
Where can I learn more about the Project DPro method?
Read the official guide from PM4NGOs. Then pair these Project DPro templates with our Project DPro flashcards and Project DPro quizzes.
How do I choose the right template for my project?
Start with the phase your project is in. A new idea needs initiation and planning documents. A running project needs tracking and reporting documents. A finishing project needs closure and lessons-learned documents. Pick only what you need. Small projects rarely need every document.
What is the best way to fill in a template?
Work with your team. Write short, clear entries. Use plain words that every reader can follow. Name an owner and a date for each action. Keep a copy of each version so you can see how your plan changed over time.
Can I change the templates to suit my project?
Yes. Tailor them to the size and risk of your work. Remove fields you do not need. Add fields your donor, client or employer asks for. Good tailoring is part of every method, including the Project DPro approach.
