Project Management Using MS Project 2007

In this two-part program, you'll be introduced to the use of MS Office Project (v2007) to assist in the effective management of projects. This course covers project management techniques used to develop an appropriate list of project tasks and dependencies and work breakdown structure (wbs), assign resources, estimate resource costs, and create budget and control project costs. In addition, techniques to enable effective project and schedule control as well as effective communication techniques, will be discussed. Materials presented in the sessions are supplemented by extensive “hands-on” activities with MS Office Project 2007.
