Skills covered in Microsoft Project range from building your first schedule to reporting across an entire programme. By the end of the training you can create dependency-linked plans, assign and balance resources, set baselines, track progress and produce clear, decision-ready reports.

Enter tasks, build summary tasks and subtasks, and add milestones and recurring tasks to create a clear, hierarchical work breakdown structure.
Apply Finish-to-Start, Start-to-Start, Finish-to-Finish and Start-to-Finish dependencies with lag and lead time, then interpret the critical path and float.
Create work, material and cost resources, assign them to tasks, identify over-allocation, and resolve it with resource levelling and effort-driven scheduling.
Capture a baseline, record actual progress with percent complete and actual values, and analyse schedule variance on the Tracking Gantt.
Track budgets and actual costs and interpret earned value metrics including BCWS, BCWP, ACWP, SPI, CPI and estimate at completion.
Create custom fields with formulas and RAG indicators, custom tables, filters and groups, and clear visual reports for stakeholders.
