Improving skills of managers and executives require, that during the transfer of knowledge (in different ways: during studies, trainings, workshops and other forms of education) it is necessary to use tools and solutions that are (or will be) used in real world environments, where people being educated are working or will work. Cloud solutions allow educational entities (universities, training companies, trainers, etc.) to provide advanced IT solutions, which reflect actual or future work environment of trained managers, regardless of the level of complexity of the environment. It is alternative for on-premise installation. The purpose of this chapter, is to analyze the capabilities of cloud solutions, their suitability for building workshop environment (reflecting real, business IT environments), and the ability to use these solutions in distributed environments (geographically spread and international groups). It will be made on example of two cloud services: Project Online and Office 365, which could provide a platform for build workshop to develop competencies related to the management of projects and programs for future project, program and portfolio managers.
