What is Microsoft Project Training?

Microsoft Office Project is a set of activities used to plan, organise, direct, and control the company’s organisational resources to achieve specific goals in a given amount of time and resources.

We understand that these processes are frequently time-consuming and tedious. As a result, project management software such as Microsoft Project is essential to organisations to make project management tasks easier. Among the features available in Microsoft Office Project are:
  • Project Plaining: Use Gantt charts and kanban boards to plan work. Microsoft Project’s planning features are much more robust than those of Microsoft Planner.
  • Communication & Collaboration: Teams can work together on projects using the same software. Currently, organisations worldwide are leveraging Microsoft Teams for cost-effective, effective communication solutions.
  • Coauthoring: Stakeholders and team members can work together to edit and update task lists and schedules.
  • Reporting: Pre-built reports available that can track progress, resources, programmes and portfolios.
  • Roadmap: Users can track programmes and project portfolios.
  • Timesheets: Collect project and non-project time for payroll and invoicing.
  • Resource Management:Manage resources by requesting and assigning tasks.
