Skills You Will Build in Microsoft Project
From Setup to Programme Reporting
In Microsoft Project training you learn to plan, schedule, resource and track projects end to end. From your first project file through to programme-level reporting, each skill is practised through hands-on exercises using realistic project scenarios, so you can apply it at work straight away.
Set up Projects and Calendars
Create project files, configure calendars and working time, and choose automatic or manual scheduling so your plan reflects real working days and holidays from the very start.
Build the Schedule and Critical Path
Enter a work breakdown structure, link tasks with the right dependencies and lag or lead time, add milestones, and read the critical path that drives your project finish date.
Assign and Balance Resources
Create work, material and cost resources, assign them to tasks, spot over-allocation, and use resource levelling to keep workloads realistic across the plan.
Set Baselines and Track Progress
Save a project baseline, record actual progress with percent complete, use the tracking Gantt, and analyse schedule variance to catch slippage early and act in time.
Manage Costs and Earned Value
Plan budgets, track actual costs, and calculate Earned Value metrics such as SPI, CPI and EAC to report project health with evidence at Advanced level.
Report and Manage Multiple Projects
Build custom views, tables and visual reports, and consolidate subprojects into master schedules for programme-level planning and reporting at Advanced level.
