If you want to be the person who can build, track and report a schedule that holds up under change, Microsoft Project skills are a clear step forward. You gain practical proficiency, structured practice and a supported path from learning to real workplace use.

Skills You Will Build in Microsoft Project
Practical Capability, Level by Level
This is what you will learn in Microsoft Project training: how to plan, schedule, resource, cost, track and report projects using the software's core and advanced features across both levels. By the end, you can build a schedule that holds up under change and communicate it clearly.
Build Schedules and Work Breakdown Structures
Create project files, configure calendars and working time, and turn scope into a structured task list with summary tasks, subtasks, durations and milestones.
Link Tasks and Manage the Critical Path
Apply Finish-to-Start and other dependencies with lag and lead time, then read the critical path and float to find and protect your key delivery dates.
Assign and Level Resources
Set up work, material and cost resources, assign them to tasks, spot over-allocation, and use levelling to balance workload within availability.
Set Baselines and Track Progress
Save a baseline, record actual progress with percent complete and actual values, and use the Tracking Gantt and variance tables to see slippage clearly.
Manage Costs and Earned Value
Track budget and actual costs, and calculate earned value metrics such as SPI, CPI, SV and CV to report project health to stakeholders.
Build Custom Views, Tables and Reports
Create custom fields with formulas and RAG indicators, tailored tables and filters, and visual reports and dashboards that communicate status clearly.
Manage Master Projects and Programmes
Insert subprojects, create cross-project dependencies, and manage resources and reporting across a programme from a single master file.
Run What-If and Schedule-Risk Analysis
Use multiple baselines and interim plans to model scope and delay scenarios, analyse near-critical tasks, and manage schedule buffers.
