Overview

About the Microsoft Project course

We teach Microsoft Project at two levels. Each is a complete one-day course and can be attended on its own. Most companies booking in-house training choose the two-day course, running Introduction on day one and Advanced on day two, so the team goes from a blank plan to confidently managing a live project.

Practical, face-to-face training on how to plan and schedule projects using Microsoft Project. By the end of the day delegates can create a new project from scratch and work confidently in the MS Project environment.

Practical advice and training on managing projects effectively in your workplace. After a short recap of the basics, our Microsoft Certified Trainers show how the advanced features are used to run a real project, including what to do when things don’t go to plan.

  • Project management concepts and the project lifecycle
  • Finding your way around MS Project: menus, views and calendars
  • Creating a new plan and outlining tasks
  • Scheduling with dates, durations and constraints
  • Linking tasks with dependencies and critical path analysis

    Frequently asked questions

    Do I need prior project management experience for your MS Project Introduction course?
    • No prior knowledge or experience is necessary. The introductory course has been created to introduce concepts and build confidence when using Microsoft Project. It will benefit anyone responsible for updating or maintaining project plans, basic timeline scheduling, setting dependencies, and mapping out workflows.
    Does the Advanced MS Project course cover resource leveling and cost management?
    • Yes. The advanced training day focuses on project tracking, including resource allocation, budget forecasting, baseline variance reporting, "What-If" scenario changes and customising global views to keep multi-layered projects operating smoothly.
    Can we include our own active project into the training?
    • For inhouse group sessions, our trainers can typically integrate elements of your current project into the training. This adds real-world context and added benefit to the straining, allowing your team to problem-solve actual work challenges.
