MS Project – Advanced

Managing projects through Project Central/Server (server based):

• Set-up MS Project to use project central/server
• Access project central/server through the project application or web browser
• Navigate in project central/server
• Set up status reports
• Report on progress, respond to messages and status reports
• Update individual projects through project central/server
• Working with portfolios and creating new tasks in project central/server
• Delegating tasks through project central/server
• Administration of project central/server (set up views, access rights, accounts etc.)

Delegates will get the most out of this course if they want to learn how to use Microsoft Office Project Professional extensively during a project. Delegates should ideally have come through the Introduction and Intermediate courses or be familiar with how to control a Microsoft Project Plan.
