Description

Join us for an insightful webinar focused on crafting a project schedule that ensures the achievement of project objectives. We'll guide participants through every scheduling process step, providing clear language to outline essential tasks necessary for constructing a robust project schedule. From establishing the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) to project execution, monitoring, and performance control, we cover it all.

Learn about scheduling compression and optimization techniques and witness their application through real-world examples, enhancing your understanding of the scheduling process.

This webinar is part of a series dedicated to elucidating critical aspects of project management. Specifically, we'll delve into project scheduling, its pivotal role in project success, and its execution strategies.

Often, the mantle of project management falls on individuals least prepared for the task. While competent and well-meaning, these accidental project managers frequently use Excel spreadsheets as project schedules—a risky approach!

Why should you attend?

Projects, though singular, are highly intricate endeavors. A detailed and well-structured schedule is paramount to completing projects within stipulated timeframes and budgets. Scheduling enables management to identify, optimize, and judiciously apply tradeoffs between time, cost, and quality/scope—the elements of the triple constraint.

Continuous project performance evaluation against these baselines facilitates effective project control. However, this iterative process is futile without a solid schedule, potentially jeopardizing project performance. Avoid uncomfortable discussions with stakeholders and senior management regarding deviations from plans or project failures by proactively planning and scheduling.

This webinar serves as the initial step toward achieving scheduling proficiency.
