Microsoft® Project Tips and Tricks
Techniques and best practices for managing tasks, resources, and timelines quickly and efficiently
1-Hour CareerTrack Webinar
March 3, 2010!
As a project manager, you're responsible for
allocating resources, funds, and time, while tracking progress from start to completion. Well-managed projects stay
under budget, meet deadlines, and run smoothly while generating outcomes that help organizations continue to succeed.
Do you have the knowledge and tools necessary to put Microsoft Project to work for you in simplifying your project
management?
Sound project management is crucial to the success of any
organization, large or small. If the person responsible for a project can't effectively and efficiently organize, plan, delegate,
and prioritize, things can quickly spiral out of control. Microsoft Project offers robust project management tools that
allow users to track and analyze all aspects of a particular project in order to streamline processes along the way. If
utilized to its full potential, this powerful software can help users minimize problems, head off potential conflicts, maintain
a clear project vision — and reap the benefits from more positive project results. Despite the vast benefits of Project,
many users are simply scratching the surface of this comprehensive tool's capabilities.
Do you ever feel like your projects are controlling you
instead of the other way around? How would your projects benefit from …
- A project plan that addresses specific needs and concerns?
- A clear, concise breakdown of tasks with the appropriate resources and time allocated to each?
- Flow that keeps your project moving forward?
- A proven system for monitoring progress along the way?
- Time-saving tools that allow you to quickly discover the realities of your project versus the intended plan?
- Less stress and confusion from everyone contributing?
- Customized charts and reporting to share project details with different audiences?

mentioned above, Microsoft Project can meet your needs and help you achieve your project management goals more
quickly and easily than ever! In this fast-paced, one-hour training session, you'll learn how to create and organize tasks,

for using Gantt charts to do more than you ever thought possible. You’ll be amazed at the comprehensive project management
tools at your fingertips — and be able to implement them to help achieve success on current projects, as well as those
you handle in the future.
In just one hour, you will learn to:
- Create tasks, organize tasks into groups, create task dependencies, and update progress on tasks
