The
Project Scheduling Workshop teaches the "how to" of scheduling tasks, time and resources. This one-day seminar/workshop includes time for participants to apply what they learn by scheduling
their own projects. This can be done on forms that are provided or by using any scheduling-friendly application including calendar management programs like MS Outlook, spreadsheets like
MS Excel, and scheduling applications including MS Project or Project KickStart.
