General Comments about the Microsoft Project Exercises

A project plan and schedule are extremely important for managing projects. Applications are available as tools to assist defining, managing, controlling, and reporting on project plans and to evaluate how the project is progressing. Microsoft Project is one application that is commonly used for this purpose and will be the application used in this course. It will help you put together a plan of action, define and organize details, track progress, analyze costs and schedule, assess the quality of your project, and report numerous details to interested parties.
