From First Schedule to Programme Reporting
This hands-on Microsoft Project course builds practical, job-ready scheduling skills. By the end, you can plan a project from scratch, resource and cost it, track delivery, and report progress to stakeholders with confidence.
Create project files, configure calendars and working time, and choose automatic or manual scheduling so your plans reflect real working conditions from the start.
Enter tasks, summary tasks and milestones, and structure a clear WBS with realistic durations, so a complex project becomes an organised, scannable schedule.
Apply Finish-to-Start and other dependencies with lag and lead time, then read the critical path and float to see what really drives your project end date.
Create work, material and cost resources, assign them to tasks, spot over-allocation, and level resources so your plan is achievable, not just optimistic.
Set baselines, record actual progress, and use the Tracking Gantt and variance tables to see slippage early and keep projects on course.
Track budget and actual cost, and calculate Earned Value measures such as SPI and CPI to report performance and flag overruns before they escalate.
Produce built-in and custom reports, views and dashboards that communicate status clearly to managers, funders and executives without sharing raw project files.
Use master projects, subprojects and resource pools to consolidate several projects, resolve cross-project resource conflicts and report at programme level.
