Project Planning, Scheduling And Control

On most engineering projects, scope, cost, and time pressures are almost inevitable. At any stage of an infrastructure or systems project, tools to plan, schedule and maintain control are essential for managing these challenges and delivering on time and on budget. 

In this self-paced introductory course, you'll learn how to:

• plan with a high level of strategic thinking that considers stakeholder expectations and risk
• schedule by modelling the plan, including required resources and data structures for reporting
• control your projects with a continual performance feedback loop

Using practical examples, you'll explore how to establish a baseline for your project. From there you can manage change and report on performance. You'll see how risk management tools and techniques can improve decision making.

You'll also learn how to collaborate with your project team to consider their differing values and goals. 

By the end of this course, you'll understand how to best apply project planning, scheduling and controls to your projects. You'll improve project performance with streamlined reporting, measurable project progress, and stronger communication with clients, contractors and suppliers.
