super

By Gabriel Pope on 11/15/2020

Very detailed!!!

By Sue Hayes on 11/15/2020

Really good course, as a complete beginner I found the lessons easy to follow and at the right pace for me. Only thing I struggled with was the outcome for some of the exercises as we didn't cover the answers after I'd had a go myself, I had to keep trying to find out what Toby had done in his answer sheet but that didn't explain why. For example on one exercise Toby increased the time for a resource to 300% to resolve an over schedule issue but I didn't understand how you can do that.
I would definitely recommend this course though as you can take your time and go back over points that perhaps didn't sink in the first time :-).

By Drew Cheek on 11/8/2020

Well explained with good visual examples.

By Nicholas Rayes on 10/20/2020

Very detailed and thorough. I would skip the first 4 or 5 sections if you have even the slightest familiarity with MS Project.

By Ramesh Nagalla on 10/9/2020
