Project Time and Cost Management Training

Two common major areas of project overrun are time and money. In this Project Time Management and Project Cost Management training course, you gain solid schedule and budget-management skills. You learn how to define the work and calculate a realistic critical path. You establish a budget baseline by allocating resources to tasks, aggregating project budgets and quantifying risk. By setting up Earned Value Analysis, you will be able to report on project status and forecast future performance.
