Microsoft Project Professionals: The Basics (4 week course)

March 20, 2025 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm

$450.00

Microsoft Project Professional (desktop) is the industry-leading Project Management tool, and understanding how to use it is vital to every professional. This course covers all the tools a Project beginner needs, from developing project schedules, assigning resources, and editing timelines, all the way through sharing and outputting the Project for real-world use/update. The course addresses concepts of Critical Patch Methodology, setting Milestones, and updating timetables and workloads throughout the Project lifecycle.

This eight (8) hour course is delivered in four (4), two-hour long sessions that students can attend online, right from their own desk. A live instructor will explain the detailed functions, and address questions as the class progresses.

Note: Instructor will be using the latest version of Microsoft Project Professional and students are encouraged to use same.
