Delegates will learn how to use a variety of views, tables, filters, and reports within Microsoft Project Professional to analyse project data for a business. Delegates will use some of Project’s most useful features to control project costs and schedules. This course builds on both the Introduction and Intermediate Microsoft Project Courses to provide everything that a serious Project Planner needs to create and manage a project.

Update individual projects through project central/server
Working with portfolios and creating new tasks in project central/server
