What you'll learn
Primavera P6 is a professional project planning and scheduling course designed to develop practical skills in project planning, WBS creation, activity scheduling, resource management, cost control, critical path analysis, baseline management, progress tracking and project reporting.
The course is particularly useful for construction, civil engineering, infrastructure, manufacturing and other project-based industries where effective planning and monitoring are essential.
Students will learn the complete project management workflow from project setup → WBS → activities → relationships → resources → cost loading → baseline → scheduling → progress updating → monitoring and reporting.
