What is a Program?

A program is similar to a collection of connected projects that collaborate to achieve a common objective, much like chapters in a book that make a larger tale. Simply said, it is a collection of initiatives that are linked and managed as a group in order to achieve a bigger goal. These initiatives may share resources, have similar goals, or rely on one another to thrive. Managing them together under a program provides for improved coordination, efficiency, and alignment with an organization’s overall goals.
