Microsoft Project Training -
Introduction to Task Scheduling

Microsoft Project is the best tool for scheduling projects. However, it is not without its problems. Happily most problems with using Microsoft Project stem from a lack of knowledge of how Microsoft Project works, or just plain lack of scheduling skills.

  • Introducing Microsoft Project and how to navigate your way around it
  • Setting Project up for easier use
  • Creating a new Schedule
  • Adding and structuring Tasks
  • Linking Tasks to get an accurate Critical Path
  • Introduction to custom fields for storing extra information
  • Getting the most from Baselines
  • Tracking your Tasks effectively
  • Basic reporting
  • Schedules as a communication tool
