Never developed a schedule, but work with them all the time? This class will review the definitions and development for schedules through an introduction to MS Project. By the end of this class, you will understand scheduling terminology and be able to develop, print and update a simple schedule.
The schedule is a key tool used to communicate to all stakeholders on the project and create both big and small snapshots of actual and planned progress. Learning MS Project will assist construction leaders in being more efficient and more effective.
MS Project is becoming more popular as a scheduling tool due to its availability for all levels of construction companies.
