DESCRIPTION

Why Become Project Proficient?

You can expect a great many benefits from Microsoft Project over and above what something such as Excel can do for you. Here’s a handful of them:

You can prove you’re overloaded with work: If you’ve had too many tasks or projects dumped on you, you can use your forecast schedule to prove this to decision makers. Once your business-unit leaders acknowledge there’s a workload problem, you can use Microsoft Project 2016 as a tool to make your workload reasonable again. The dynamic model helps you quickly develop what-if scenarios.

You can prove your project is understaffed: It’s easy to prove to decision makers that something needs to happen—get more staff, get more time or deliver less quality.

You can prove your project is underfunded: When you build your forecast schedule from the ground up, you get a manpower and cost estimate for each task from your team. If the forecast for that project shows you exceeding the budget right off the bat, you’ll know you need more resources. The extra detail provides ideas for how you can make the project healthy.

You’ll be able to forecast your project better and prevent last-minute surprises: When forecast models don’t meet required deadlines, you can take corrective actions to resolve critical project tasks from a time-required, expense and staffing perspective.

You’ll save time as the project manager: Microsoft Project is more efficient than Excel for keeping your schedule up-to-date. In Excel, you have to constantly and manually adjust dates to reflect the latest status of your project. You have to change even more dates when you need to accurately forecast your project. In fact, in a three-month project, you could save as much as 56 hours of scheduling effort if you schedule your project in Microsoft Project.

If you want to keep your forecast schedule up-to-date in Excel, you need to revise the start and finish date of 50 tasks, on average, for each revision of the schedule. This will take you two hours each time—two hours of effort during which you could easily make errors. As a result, people who schedule in Excel typically let their schedule slip out-of-date, and then they lose their reporting tool as well as their forecast model.

You’ll be a more effective project manager. If you’ve accurately established all relationships between tasks, you’ll find many parallel paths of relationships in your schedule. Only one of those parallel paths determines the duration of your project, the “Critical Path.” Using concepts like Critical Path will make you a more effective project manager. You’ll know at any time which tasks can cause slippage and which can’t.

You’ll also get better at estimating. Because you can easily keep your schedule up-to-date in Microsoft Project, you’ll be able to compare which estimates were too low and which ones were too high. You’ll become better at the difficult job of estimating and get a firmer grip on your future.

In short, you’ll spend less time with Microsoft Project than you will with Excel. You’ll also increase your chance for project success.

I highly recommend Addonskills for all kind of project management training and advisory/consulting services for the corporate.

Chirag Kapadia

I have attended Portfolio Management Professional (PfMP) certification training from Addon Skills and Mr. Kailash Upadhyay delivered the training. I must say the training made every concept cleared. Not just the training but the mock test and post-training Videos from Addon Skills really helped in this certification journey. The best part of engaging with Addon Skills is the “Telegram” group access where aspiring professionals discuss their doubts and clarifies their assumptions about the concept. I am thankful to Addon skills for the training as this was a major contributor in achieving this certification and becoming one of the first 900 PfMP certified professionals in the world.

PfMP training provided by Mr. Kailash from Addon Skills was very good and had provided a good value add for my preparation towards the certification. He was very knowledgeable and knows exactly how to communicate and keep the training engaged. Also, the support provided by him for the Application process did add a great value. Happy to be part of this training group.

Venkatramnath Vyasarayani

Recently, I undertook training program with Addon Skills in Program Management to build and equip skills to appear for PgMP certification. I have sixteen plus years of experience in IT and have been attending several training courses, I am not so very easily impressed, reserved with my praise, and do not usually complete surveys. But, Addon Skills and its instructor Kailash Upadhyay were excellent, his knowledge combined with his experience on the subject could be rated as one among the "best in the industry" and certainly the best experience I had so far. His passion towards the subject, and the concern he had for the attendees taking training were impeccable. The best part was that the course does not stop with training, but post training , Addon Skills set up technical discussion forum, built and shared very good study materials, videos, trail question banks, couple with many sample scenarios, these clubbed with availability of trainer for any questions gives the extra advantage and make you feel comfortable that you are not left alone. Kailash with his knowledge had seamlessly walked all of us (my training batch mates) through the breadth of information even though it was remote environment. He did a fabulous job pacing everything and addressing all the questions/queries raised by the participants. I bet my 10cents on Addon Skills and its Trainer Kailash U, Addon Skills is my GoTo place for any of the management training, consultations for setting up or transforming your program to success.
