Course Description

uring this introductory course on using Microsoft Project 2016, we'll teach the basics of using Microsoft Project 2016. We'll start with navigating the Project 2016 interface, including the Ribbon, Backstage View and the Quick Access Toolbar. Discover concepts to help you understand how enter data into a Project plan, creating tasks and sub-tasks, and creating project dependencies. Contents and Overview This easy to understand course starts at the very beginning, specifically designed for those with little or no Microsoft Project experience. The first task is to find the software and install it on your computer. Then we discover the new and improved features added to the 2016 version. There are new features that could be a big help in your job, your business, or in personal projects. We start with essential first steps. You will learn to create a project plan, save it, then open it. We show you simple ways to use Microsoft's powerful online and contextual help, so you are never left wondering when you have a question or encounter a challenge. Along the way we keep in mind you will want to personalize Project to accomplish the things you want. We learn all about Ribbons and Toolbars that make Project extremely flexible. Next we move on to entering and editing data in your project, adding tasks, linking tasks and project dependencies. All along the way there are plenty of exercises and quizzes that help you fully understand all the concepts and solidify them in your memory. This is the course you need to learn the most important ways to expertly use MS Project 2016. It assumes you are just beginning with Project and easily steps you through the process of being highly proficient with this widely used tool. This course is for absolute beginners, thus is appropriate for those new to Project and who appreciate a methodical, patient and conversational pace. ** Updated July 2017: English close captions added* Updated June 2017:

Heres what our students are sayingInformation presented well and was clear to understand. I had used MS Project for quite a few years but learned how to use it much more effectively and confidently. The beginner course covers the material to allow a Project Manager set up, resource, and track a project. Money well spent! Gordon StaubI'm learning what I expected. Does drag sometimes but I would not disparage that. It is easy to move forward and the detail may be of benefit to someone. Product has a good look and feel and has utility. Mark HolcombWonderful Examples and able to follow along nicely with clear descriptions and lay out. I am finally able to understand the basic usage of MS Project 2016. Terri LeedyDid you know?

A bit too detailed. The author definitely is very thorough, just want to jump into the MsProject right away ;)

By Elizabeth Aterno on 5/11/2020

It was a good course. I picked up some good tips. I was partway through a more comprehensive course when I decided to take an easier course. Examples were the same.

By Hemant Ghadge on 4/26/2020

the Course is very good for Beginners

By Sijil Easaw on 4/9/2020

This course is good for beginners who would like to get accustomed to work with MS Project. A minor point to note: Since this course seems to be a part of the more exhaustive course, I found the ending lesson a little abrupt where the instructor says 'I will see you in the next session'. May be confusing as one would expect to move to the next session! Other than this, I liked the course and the assignments.

From section 1 to section 3 could be Course Introduction. It also have to be minimized.

excelente

By Tammy Johnson on 5/13/2019

The course was well taught; however, I hoped the beginner course would provide an overview of the program's capabilities, so I could see how much I needed to learn before it would be useful to me.

By Kubik Stinson Krchlk on 11/22/2018

It's pretty detailed and really good for beginners. But a lot of it is obvious as teacher assumed we have experience with office tools like excel or word.

By Gayathri Srinivasan on 11/18/2018

Absolutely loved the detailing in the course. I learned so much without even realising it
