Course content
Develop skills in setting and managing milestones and understanding their critical role in project tracking. Learn to use summary tasks to group related tasks and manage project sections more effectively.
Explore how to link tasks using the four types of task relationships: Finish-to-Start (FS), Start-to-Start (SS), Finish-to-Finish (FF), and Start-to-Finish (SF). These relationships help create a logical, efficient project schedule.
Learn methods to identify the critical path in your projects, allowing for focused management of tasks that directly impact project timelines. Understanding the critical path is essential for prioritising tasks and allocating resources efficiently.
Master the strategic use of constraints and deadlines to manage and adjust project timelines effectively. Learn how deadlines differ from constraints and how to use both to guide project execution while maintaining flexibility.
Understand the importance of setting baselines and how to use them to track and manage project variance. Learn techniques for measuring slack, handling variance, and implementing acceleration strategies when a project deviates from the baseline.
Develop advanced strategies for allocating and managing resources to avoid overallocation. Learn techniques for identifying resource overallocations and applying levelling techniques to balance resource demand with supply.
Create detailed reports that provide insightful data to stakeholders, enabling informed decision-making and ongoing project evaluation. Learn to customise reports to highlight critical information such as cost performance, task progress, and resource allocation.
Leverage tools like Project Online/PWA to enhance collaboration across project teams, facilitating better communication and real-time updates.
Discover how to seamlessly integrate Microsoft Project with Microsoft Teams, enhancing project communication and collaboration by providing real-time updates and centralized access to project details directly within the Teams environment.
