What are the benefits?
Upon successful completion of this course, participants will gain the skills to define project scope, develop planning strategies, and prepare detailed execution plans. They will learn to create a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), identify project activities, develop network diagrams, estimate resources and durations, and build comprehensive project schedules. Learners will also be equipped to generate project cash flows, monitor and control progress, perform delay and what-if analyses, and produce professional reports and dashboards using Microsoft Project.
How the evaluation done?
Before the course begins, participants will complete a self-assessment to evaluate their current skill level against the competencies required for a Planning Engineer role. Throughout the training, continuous assessment will be conducted through live case studies to monitor progress and ensure the practical development of project planning and scheduling skills.
MS Project Duration?
The average duration of the MS Project training is 30 hours, designed to cover both theoretical concepts and practical application. To achieve proficiency, participants are encouraged to practice extensively on the software beyond the classroom sessions.
