Course Description
The course teaches you how to create and maintain some of the key project artifacts. The most convenient way to keep a good grip on important events is with the help of tables. So, it is only logical to use the most popular program for organizing and manipulating data for that purpose – Microsoft Excel. In this course, we cover the key aspects of using Excel for project management. You will learn how to create the five most important project management documents — work trackers, logs (from project diary to RAIDD), risk logs, project schedules and Gantt charts, and budgets.
