The book is designed for users of earlier versions to upgrade their skills and for new planners to learn the software. It starts with the basics required to create a schedule, through resource planning and on to the more advanced features. A chapter is dedicated to the new functions and it outlines the differences from the earlier versions throughout the book.
Microsoft® Project 2010 is an extensive software update with many new functions and as a result this is a complete rewrite of the author’s previous book. It is designed to teach project management professionals how to use the software in a project environment. This publication was written so it may be used as a training manual, self teach book, or user guide.
The book is aimed at:
Project managers and schedulers who wish learn the software, however are unable to attend a training course, or require a reference book. Project management companies in industries such as building, construction, oil & gas, software development, government and defence who wish to run their own software training courses or provide their employees a good practical guide to using the software. Training organizations who require a training manual to run their own courses.
