Roles range from Project Planner and Scheduler to Project Controls Engineer and Manager, and here is what the market shows right now.

    Skills You Will Build in P6

    Hands-On Across Every Module

    Oracle Primavera P6 Training builds practical, hands-on skills across the full scheduling and project controls workflow. By the end, you can plan, schedule, resource-load, cost-load, and report on complex projects in P6, at Fundamentals or Advanced level depending on your path.

    Build the P6 Project Structure

    You will learn what you can do in Primavera P6 from the ground up, starting with the enterprise project structure (EPS), OBS, and work breakdown structure, then configuring calendars and project settings the way real capital projects require.

    Create and Sequence Activities

    Add activities with the right activity types, link them with Finish-to-Start, Start-to-Start, Finish-to-Finish, and Start-to-Finish relationships, apply lag and lead, and organize work using activity codes for clear, filterable schedules.

    Schedule and Read the Critical Path

    Run the P6 scheduler, interpret the critical path, total float, and free float, apply constraints correctly, and use the results to spot risk and protect the project finish date on complex programs.

    Assign Resources and Roles

    Create resources and roles, assign them to activities, set budgeted units and costs, and identify over-allocation so your schedule reflects realistic effort and availability across the project.

    Set Baselines and Track Progress

    Set the project baseline, advance the data date, update progress with physical percent complete and actual dates, and read variance against the baseline to keep delivery on course and defensible.

    Load Costs and Run Earned Value

    In the Advanced level, cost-load the schedule, build cost accounts and S-curves, and calculate earned value metrics such as SPI, CPI, and estimate at completion for credible performance reporting.

    Compare Schedules and Manage Change

    Work with multiple baselines, compare schedules using Claim Digger, and produce the variance analysis and narrative that contract administration and monthly project reporting demand.

    Manage Programs and Custom Reports

    Handle multiple projects with cross-project relationships, use enterprise resource management, and build custom layouts, filters, and reports, including export to Excel for management dashboards.

    Sam

    United KingdomTrustpilot

    "In terms of content, all good. But poor time management. Time expected for breaks was never compliant (ie. if teacher said he was taking 10 mins break, it ended up being 20. For 50 mins break, teacher was showing up AT least 10-15 mins late...) Also, during second day I asked one question about a test and teacher seem disappointed for me to ask and gave me a whole speech of me not retaining all information while reading (after hours of exhausted training) also letting me know people who does not focus tend to have Low IQ... Also, having to spend time just waiting for teacher to end notes that I guess it should have been ready already for the lesson (at least, if the teacher is expecting for the alum to memorize and know everything at once) "
