Project Management by using Primavera software
Why Primavera software?
Primavera provides the solution for planning, managing, reporting, and executing programs and projects. Enables users to get started quickly and execute projects with ease. Primavera software can help identify areas where resource costs may be reduced by analyzing resource trends and costs.
What are the unique features of the training?
Hands-on training with real cases to develop the dynamic schedule model, monitor and control, generating reports for effective project decision making
Who can participate?
Under/post Graduate Students, Diploma, Execution Engineers, Planning Engineers, Project Coordinators, Project Managers, Program Managers
What are the benefits?
After completion of this course, learners will able to define the scope of the project, define the planning strategy, prepare the execution plan, define Work Breakdown Structure, Identify the project activities, prepare the network diagram, Estimate resources to complete the activities, estimate the duration of activities, develop the schedule, develop the project cash flow, monitoring and controlling of the project, perform the delay analysis, perform the what is analysis, generate the reports and dashboards of project by using Primavera tool.
How the evaluation done?
Before the course begins, the participants will evaluate himself/herself against the skills sets required to become the planning engineer. There will be continuous assessment through live case study and evaluation will be done to verify the development of skills.
Primavera Duration?
The average duration of Primavera training is 35 hours. Participants needs to practice on software to become experts.
