This 1-day instructor-led course will familiarize participants with the basic features and functions of Microsoft Project so it can used effectively and efficiently in a real-world environment. This course covers the critical knowledge and skills a project manager  needs to create a project plan with Project during the planning phase. In other words, when assigned to lead a project, this course will enable a learner how to draft a project plan and share it with management (and others) for review and approval. Note: also see related Microsoft Project; Part 2 as a great "bundle" option to review.

The course will give the student a fundamental understanding of Microsoft Project necessary to create and save project plans.
