MS Project 1: Building a Schedule
Learn how to build a basic construction project schedule. In planning for a job to start, we need to create a project schedule. Ideally, this initial schedule becomes a benchmark for us to measure progress and costs on our jobs. This course walks through the process of building that basic schedule and preparing it to be used during the job. We will also cover some introductory issues on tracking a job in progress. This course assumes the user will be proficient with standard computer skills - we will not review how to open or save files.Topics:
