This is a practical book for all users of Microsoft Project who need to plan, track, and communicate effectively for any type of project. Whether you’re a more casual project manager or a professional project manager, this book delivers a sensible approach to using Project 2010 based on best practices around project management. It embodies proven effective learning techniques gleaned from years of consulting and teaching experience.
Whether you need to build simple plans or more complex plans with Project, this book shows you how to use powerful tools and techniques to better manage your projects. I’ve been training and consulting with Microsoft Project since the release of earlier versions nearly 20 years ago and as such have perfected the optimal approach to transfer knowledge efficiently so you can get the most out of the software.
Working with Project isn’t like using other Microsoft Office products—such as Word, Excel, or PowerPoint—in that it requires you to have some core knowledge and understanding of project management in conjunction with the application. This book ties the primary project-management concepts to the appropriate functions in Microsoft Project, resulting in your increased productivity and effectiveness. This is neither a beginner, an intermediate, nor an advanced course but rather a comprehensive program with the core building blocks to support your projects from planning, monitoring, and controlling through closing. So, no matter what level of expertise you have with Microsoft Project, this book will help you optimize your use of the tool.
Although this book is a practical, hands-on guide, it’s also designed to prepare you for the Microsoft Certifications 77-178 Exam—Microsoft Project 2010, Managing Projects. Candidates for this exam should have experience effectively scheduling, communicating, and tracking projects using the desktop version of Project 2010 Standard and Professional (excluding Project Server features). The exam will be a live-app or performance-based exam designed to measure your skill based on outcome and not necessarily on how you perform the tasks. The attached CD.
