MS Project Course at Atlas Iron Mine Site - June 2011

MS Project Course at Atlas Iron Mine Site - June 2011

Our preferred and proven method of training, is to train in 2 or 3 hour units on different days. This allows the trainees to do homework, and when the next unit resumes, we are able to address any issues arising from the previous unit. In addition, we have found that a unit of more than 2 or 3 hours in any one day, is not productive as one’s attention span reduces dramatically as the day wears on.

Microsoft Project can interface withExcel, Word, Access, Outlook, PowerPoint and other external databases or ASCII files.
