    What Is Microsoft Project Training?UntitledSkills That Run Real Projects

    Microsoft Project Training in Saudi Arabia is a practical, hands-on course that teaches you to plan, schedule, resource and track projects using Microsoft Project, the industry-leading scheduling software developed by Microsoft Corporation. You learn by doing, following live exercises on realistic project scenarios. The programme runs at two levels. Fundamentals (2 days, 16 hours) suits new or occasional users and covers project setup, task scheduling, dependencies, the critical path, resources, baselines and progress tracking. Advanced (3 days, 24 hours) is for experienced users and covers resource levelling, cost management and Earned Value, custom views and reports, and multi-project programme management. Microsoft Project is the scheduling tool behind PMBOK, PRINCE2 and Agile ways of working, and it calculates the critical path and Earned Value metrics such as CPI and SPI automatically. Across Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 giga-projects, energy schemes and IT programmes, employers value professionals who can turn a plan into a controlled, trackable schedule. Build that capability with Invensis Learning.

    The Scheduling Skills You Will BuildSkills That Run Real Schedules

    This Microsoft Project training builds practical, job-ready skills across both levels. You move from creating and scheduling a single project to levelling resources, tracking costs and Earned Value, and managing multiple projects as one programme.

    Build Schedules and Gantt Charts

    Create projects from scratch, enter tasks and durations, and build a clear work breakdown structure and Gantt chart that shows the whole plan at a glance.

    Link Tasks and Find the Critical Path

    Use Finish-to-Start and other dependencies with lag and lead time, then read the critical path to see what drives your finish date and where the schedule risk sits.

    Assign and Level Resources

    Set up work, material and cost resources, assign them to tasks, spot over-allocation, and use resource levelling to balance workload within availability.

    Baseline and Track Progress

    Set a project baseline, record actual progress with percent complete, and use the Tracking Gantt and variance tables to report schedule performance to stakeholders.

    Manage Costs and Earned Value

    On the Advanced level, track budgets and costs and calculate Earned Value metrics such as CPI, SPI, BCWP and EAC to measure project health for stakeholders.

    Run Master Projects and Reports

    Consolidate subprojects into a master schedule, create cross-project links, and build custom views, filters and visual reports for programme-level reporting.

    General

    What is Microsoft Project training?

    Microsoft Project training is a practical, hands-on course that teaches you to plan, schedule, resource and track projects using Microsoft Project. It runs at two levels, Fundamentals and Advanced, and suits project managers, planners, coordinators and PMO professionals.

    Who should take this course in Saudi Arabia?

    It is designed for project managers, planners, coordinators, planning engineers and PMO professionals who plan and schedule work. It also suits PMP and PRINCE2 practitioners who want to apply project management methods using the industry-standard scheduling tool.

    Is Microsoft Project training worth it in Saudi Arabia?

    Yes. Vision 2030 giga-projects, energy schemes and IT programmes rely on Microsoft Project for scheduling, so confident users are in demand. Project planners in Saudi Arabia average around SAR 160,000 a year, and the skills apply across many sectors. Talk to a learning advisor to get started.

    Should I take the Fundamentals or Advanced level?

    Take Fundamentals if you are new to Microsoft Project or use it occasionally and want a solid foundation in scheduling, resources and tracking. Take Advanced if you already use the tool and want resource levelling, Earned Value, custom reports and multi-project management.

    Do I need prior experience to join?

    The Fundamentals level has no formal prerequisites, though basic familiarity with Windows and Microsoft Office helps. The Advanced level assumes you have completed Fundamentals or have equivalent hands-on experience using Microsoft Project.

    Which methods does Microsoft Project support?

    Microsoft Project is the scheduling tool used to apply PMBOK, PRINCE2 and Agile and hybrid ways of working. It calculates the critical path automatically and supports Earned Value Management, so it fits most project management approaches.

    Pricing

    How much does Microsoft Project training cost in Saudi Arabia?

    The fee varies by level, delivery mode and group size, so pricing is available on request. Both Fundamentals and Advanced levels are offered in live virtual, classroom and corporate formats. Request a quote for the option that fits you.

    What is included in the course fee?

    The fee typically includes instructor-led sessions, hands-on exercises on realistic project scenarios, course materials, learner support, and a course completion certificate from Invensis Learning. Confirm exact inclusions when you request a quote.

    Do I need to buy Microsoft Project software separately?

    Yes. Microsoft Project is a separate commercial product from Microsoft Corporation, and you need a valid licence to use it during and after the training. Check whether a trial licence is provided when you enrol.

    Do you offer corporate or group pricing?

    Yes. We offer corporate group training with customised schedules and volume-based pricing for teams and PMOs, delivered onsite or live virtual across Saudi Arabia. Ask about group pricing for a tailored quote.

    What payment options are available?

    We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfers, and offer instalment options on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you.

    Assessment

    Is there an exam for Microsoft Project training?

    No. This is a non-certification skills course with no examination at either level. Learning is reinforced through live, hands-on Microsoft Project exercises, and you receive a course completion certificate from Invensis Learning.

    Will I receive a certificate after the course?

    Yes. On completing the Fundamentals or Advanced programme you receive a course completion certificate from Invensis Learning. It records the practical Microsoft Project skills you have built, which apply directly to your work.

    How is learning assessed during the course?

    There is no formal assessment. Instead, you follow live exercises using realistic project scenarios, building proficiency through practice while the trainer demonstrates each Microsoft Project feature step by step.

    How long is each level of the training?

    The Fundamentals level runs for 2 days (16 hours) and the Advanced level for 3 days (24 hours). Both are available as full-day sessions or extended half-day formats, and you can attend either level independently.

    Do I need Microsoft Project installed before attending?

    Yes. You should have Microsoft Project installed and accessible on your device before the training so you can follow the hands-on exercises. Confirm version and software access details when you enrol.

    Course Content

    What will I learn in the Fundamentals level?

    Fundamentals covers project setup and calendars, building the work breakdown structure, task durations and milestones, dependencies and the critical path, work, material and cost resources, baselines, progress tracking and built-in reports.

    What does the Advanced level cover?

    Advanced covers task types and the scheduling formula, resource levelling and pools, cost management and Earned Value, custom fields, views and reports, master projects and cross-project links, and what-if scenario planning with multiple baselines.

    Can a complete beginner take this course?

    Yes. The Fundamentals level is built for people who are new to Microsoft Project, with no formal prerequisites. Every feature is demonstrated live and reinforced with hands-on exercises, so beginners build confidence quickly.

    What materials and practice are provided?

    You receive structured course materials and work through practical exercises using realistic project scenarios throughout both levels. This hands-on approach helps you apply each Microsoft Project skill to your own projects afterwards.

    Which versions of Microsoft Project does the course cover?

    The training covers Microsoft Project as used in practice, including the desktop editions (Standard and Professional) and Project Online within Microsoft 365. Confirm the specific version used before your session so your software matches.
