Description of a program #
A program is a project that has been identified as a program.
Once the program is created, projects can be attached to it.
The entire program can then be managed in a portfolio of projects dedicated to the program.
This will allow you, for example, to have an overview of the planning, budget, risks or weather of the entire program.
