    Skills You Will Build in Microsoft Project

    Practical, Job-Ready Capabilities

    This training moves from core scheduling to advanced planning, resourcing, cost control and reporting. By the end, you can build, resource, baseline, track and report a project end to end in Microsoft Project, at either Fundamentals or Advanced level.

    Build and Structure Project Plans

    You will learn to create a project file, configure calendars and working time, and build a full work breakdown structure with summary tasks, subtasks, milestones, durations and recurring tasks, so your plan is organised and easy to maintain.

    Link Tasks and Manage the Critical Path

    Connect tasks with Finish-to-Start, Start-to-Start, Finish-to-Finish and Start-to-Finish dependencies, add lag and lead time, apply constraints and deadlines, and read the critical path and float to keep projects on schedule.

    Assign and Level Resources

    Create work, material and cost resources, assign them with the right units, apply effort-driven scheduling, spot over-allocation, and use resource levelling and shared resource pools to balance workload across a project or programme.

    Set Baselines and Track Progress

    Set the project baseline, record actual progress with percent complete and actual values, use the Tracking Gantt to compare planned against actual, and analyse schedule variance so you always know where the project really stands.

    Manage Costs and Earned Value

    Plan and track costs with budget and cost resources, and calculate Earned Value metrics such as BCWS, BCWP, ACWP, SPI and CPI directly in Microsoft Project to report performance against both schedule and budget.

    Report with Custom Views and Master Projects

    Create custom fields, tables, filters and RAG indicators, build visual reports and dashboards, and manage master projects, subprojects and cross-project links while exporting to Excel and Microsoft 365 for stakeholder reporting.
