 INTRODUCTION

• Today’s organizations enjoy more convenience and produce better-quality outputs with their projects through the help of project management tools. The challenge, however, is in choosing the right software that has features to meet the requirements of PM standards. Many experts know that there is no one-size-fits-all software which makes choosing more difficult. However, among the most popular choices, today is Microsoft Project Professional 2021.

• Microsoft Project Pro 2021 is the right tool for the management of projects and has powerful features such as a “work breakdown structure” (WBS). Project managers can split the project into a whole series of tasks, with all resources (work, materials, and costs) attached to each task and link them according to interdependencies among the tasks. Moreover, the project manager and other supporting staff can track the progress of the project by feeding each activity with the right quantity of resources used at the right time

• New features of Microsoft Project Pro 2021 software include the capability to enter actual quantities of materials, work hours, and costs, linking tasks with a drop-down menu, viewing task summary names, labeling timeline bars, and accessibility improvements. Therefore, project managers can easily track the physical progress of the project anytime.

• MS Project Pro 2021 is a project management software designed to aid the planning and execution activities of the project. This includes scheduling, managing resources effectively, monitoring progress, evaluating workloads pertinent to a project, and performing earns value analysis (ENA) to indicate if the project is on schedule and or on budget and performing according to the planned schedule and budget.

TRAINING OBJECTIVE

• The overall aim of the training course is to equip the participants with relevant knowledge and skills to manage projects effectively in terms of cost, time, resources, and quality by using Microsoft Project 2021 Pro Software. Download the full advert here
