Microsoft Project 2019 - Level 2 & 3 Advanced (AA-MS-Prjct-19-L2)


Course Description

This course covers the advanced knowledge and skills a project manager needs to update a project plan in Project during the execution, monitoring, and controlling phases of a project. In other words, once your project plan is approved by the project sponsor, this course will enable you to manage the project so that it is completed on time, within budget, and according to scope.

Note: This course is for anyone who has Project on the desktop, regardless of whether they purchased an "on-premise" edition or subscribed to a "cloud-based" (online) edition. Most project managers and project team members use the desktop application, so that is the main focus of this course. The main features of the online app are presented in an appendix.
