Microsoft Software training - Microsoft Project (2 days)

This course is for Microsoft Software versions up to 2003 - we also run an equivalent Microsoft Project 2007 training course.

We can not make you a perfect project manager, but we can show you how to use Microsoft Project effectively. Learn how to juggle tasks and resources, and create that all-important Gantt chart! This course also covers topics such as creating and assigning resources, conflict levelling and splitting tasks.
