Melbourne 1-Day Microsoft Project Comprehensive Course

Finding the right project management course can be a challenge, especially if you’re not sure where to start. This Microsoft Project training course is designed for beginners who want to learn how to efficiently use MS Project. The course covers all the core skills you need to get started with developing project schedules.

By the end of the course, you’ll have a strong understanding of how to create and manage project timelines using Microsoft Project. Whether you’re new to project management or just need a refresher on the basics, this course will give you the skills you need to succeed.

Use a logical approach to develop your project program. We’ve created a project schedule that includes Scoping (Tasks) and Resourcing for a real-life project, addressing potential challenges you may face.

Estimate the project costs and prepare a cash flow projection. Understand the cumulative costs and spending rate throughout the project.

The aim is to demonstrate effective Scoping, Resourcing, and Costing for your project.

  • Assess the project’s overall cost.
  • Create a cash flow projection for the project.
  • Gain insights into the cumulative expenses and spending rate throughout the project.

Discover how to effectively use filtering, grouping, and sorting to review the schedule. We’ll explore project previews, milestone reports, and clarify who is responsible for what and when.

Create a project calendar and outline the assignments. This exercise aims to help participants understand the calendar’s functionality and how it applies to the project.

This highlights Microsoft Project’s structure and organisation. By grasping how its components relate, you’ll enhance your navigation skills and boost your confidence with the software.

  • Assign tasks and materials to the project to create a schedule detailing manpower and resource needs
  • Learn to manage your resources effectively
  • Identify where over-allocation occurs and find solutions to resolve these issues

Format the Gantt chart for printing, add the company logos, and include project details in the header and footer. We use a standard template for project presentations.

Gain an understanding of the fundamental concept of the Critical Path, learn how to accurately identify it, and explore how to utilise it effectively for improved project management

We offer effective tracking techniques for accurately recording progress, ensuring the program remains relevant.

Testimonials

The course was well thought out and executed. The level of detail was great, particularly going back to basics to setup the program right from the beginning. Explaining why things are done was also very helpful.
My goal was to improve my overall understanding and ability to use Microsoft Project. I now understand the through process behind programming, how to setup a program in a way that allows the software to work for me + assist in my role. I will also now use the cashflow and resourcing function. Also setting up filters, templates etc for future use is helpful
Really practical and useful training workshop and covers a lot of grounds. The inclusion of good scheduling practice, ‘right’ way and ‘wrong’ way of using the software, people’s bad habits and tips to set up to save time in the long term, were really useful too. Brett is a really engaging instructor and very succinctly demonstrated all the powerful potential and functions of this useful software
I am fully convinced that the more detail / more accurate planning and update that one ‘invest’ in using MS projects, the more powerful and useful it can be for one’s projects.
Beginner friendly. Delivery was excellent. Super informative and very useful to my role. I wanted to learn to track and filter data and provide updated status reports. The tracking tool usage and status report pulling data quickly for ministerial requests suit our needs
Have thoroughly enjoyed the course. Have learnt how to use Microsoft Project it great, very interactive and engaging. The software is extremely beneficial for managing projects, in addition reporting purposes for management and minister queries
Really enjoyed the course, very interactive and very detailed easy to follow along. I feel more comfortable understanding relationship between planning and delivering a project
Really helpful and appropriately targeted
It will help me to setup program more strategically to assist with managing claims
