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.
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.
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.
Create work, material and cost resources, assign them to tasks, spot over-allocation, and use resource levelling to keep workloads realistic across the plan.
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.
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.
Build custom views, tables and visual reports, and consolidate subprojects into master schedules for programme-level planning and reporting at Advanced level.

Here's everything you may ask...
Microsoft Project training in Malawi is a practical, instructor-led course that teaches you to plan, schedule, resource and track projects using Microsoft Project. It suits project managers, coordinators, planners, schedulers and PMO team members, from beginners at Fundamentals level to experienced users at Advanced level.
"The training exceeded my expectations in every way. The balance between compact theory and core essentials made the content clear, focused, and immediately applicable. The learning kit was exceptionally well-prepared—high-quality materials, detailed visuals, exam questions, clear instructions, and an included exam voucher made it truly great value for the money. What stood out most was the trainer's (Pratap Kumar) authenticity and dedication. You could feel that he genuinely wanted us to learn and succeed. His honest, straightforward approach built trust and kept the session engaging from start to finish. I also appreciated the interactive format and real-life examples, which grounded the theory in everyday situations. Hearing Carlas’ experiences and comparing practices across companies brought in valuable perspective. I only wish more participants had been involved to deepen the experience exchange. Overall, this was a highly valuable, well-delivered training that left me motivated and well-equipped to put what I’ve learned into action. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for meaningful, real-world-focused learning."

"Quiez sessions are very nice. I really helpful to push our career growth. Awesome trainer and his teaching style."
"The trainer has shared simple explanations by providing easy to understand examples when it came to the foundation training and theory. Also, I got a good understanding on what methods should I use when reviewing/ understanding and answering the questions for the Practitioner exam. Overall the 4 days of trainings I believe were fundamentanl in preparing myself for both exams (foundation & practitioner). I feel confident that I got the necessary information to prepare to take the exams. "
