Course description
Primavera P6 Professional Fundamentals Rel 15
This course leads participants through the entire project life cycle, from planning to execution. Topics include adding activities, assigning resources, and creating a baseline. Participants also gain a thorough background in the concepts of planning and scheduling.
All workshops and instruction stress the three basic elements of project management: schedule, resources, and costs.
At the end of each day, students apply the concepts and functionality they learned in a case study. The course is divided into three sections: Creating a Project; Scheduling the Project; Project Execution and Control.
The course uses P6 Professional, Primavera's Windows-based, client/server application. It is appropriate for those using P6 Professional either as a stand-alone application or as part of P6 EPPM.
This course is offered in partnership with SAR Systems, an Oracle Univeristy-accredited training provider.
Who should attend?
This course is best suited to project managers, project planners and schedulers, business analysts, end users and functional implementers.
Prerequisite
Participants should have completed a project management fundamentals course such as our Project Management Essentials, or equivalent.
