    Where You Stand Today,

    And What Microsoft Project Skills Change

    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.

    The Microsoft Project Skills You Will Build

    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.

    Build Project Plans and Gantt Charts

    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.

    Link Tasks and Find the Critical Path

    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.

    Assign and Level Resources

    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.

    Track Progress and Variance

    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.

    Manage Cost and Earned Value

    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.

    Report and Manage Multiple Projects

    Build custom views, tables, filters and visual reports, and consolidate subprojects into a master schedule for programme-level tracking and clear stakeholder reporting.
