Demand and Pay in Australia
Microsoft Project skills are in strong demand across Australia, where a record construction and infrastructure pipeline, major mining and energy programmes, and digital transformation in IT and government all rely on solid project scheduling. With Infrastructure Australia forecasting a shortage of skilled project professionals, including planners, employers value people who can build and control schedules in the tool, exactly the capability that Microsoft Project training builds. Demand runs from project coordinator and scheduler roles through to planner, project manager and PMO manager positions, and here is what the market is telling us right now.
Microsoft Project skills are more than a line on your CV. They are what turns a plan into delivery on Australia's biggest projects. Build the capability employers are hiring for and start your training today.
Australia's project pipeline is growing faster than its supply of skilled planners, and employers increasingly separate people who can control a schedule in Microsoft Project from those who cannot. Here is the shift these skills make.

Hands-On Across Both Levels
This programme builds practical capability step by step, from core scheduling in the Fundamentals level to advanced resourcing, cost, reporting and multi-project management in the Advanced level. By the end you can plan, control and report real projects in the tool.
Create a project from scratch: set the calendar and working time, enter tasks and milestones, build the work breakdown structure, and produce a clear Gantt chart you can share with your team and stakeholders.
Apply Finish-to-Start and other dependency types with lag and lead time, use constraints and deadlines wisely, and read the critical path to see exactly what drives your project finish date.
Create work, material and cost resources, assign them to tasks, spot over-allocation, and level workloads so your schedule stays realistic and deliverable rather than overloaded.
Set baselines, record actual progress, and use the Tracking Gantt and variance tables to see what is ahead, on track or slipping, so you can act before deadlines are missed.
Plan and track project costs, and calculate Earned Value metrics such as SPI and CPI to report performance against both budget and schedule with confidence.
Build custom views, tables, filters and visual reports, and consolidate subprojects into a master schedule for programme-level tracking and clear stakeholder reporting.

From Spreadsheets to Real Schedules
"I came in tracking a construction programme in spreadsheets and left able to build a proper dependency-linked schedule with resources and baselines. The hands-on exercises made every feature stick, and I use Microsoft Project daily now."

Exactly the Skills I Needed
"The Fundamentals level was perfect for me as a coordinator. I can now set up a plan, link tasks, find the critical path and report progress clearly. It gave me the confidence to take on more scheduling work."

Strong on Advanced Features
"The Advanced level took my resource levelling and Earned Value reporting to another level. Managing subprojects in a master schedule was the part I needed most for our resources programme, and it was explained really well."

Lifted Our Whole PMO
