Project Management: Want to Master the Schedule of Your Project's Monitoring and Controlling Phase? If so, you've come to the right place!

While practicing Project Management, when you execute a large project, it is generally divided in five phases: Project Initiation, Project Planning, Project Execution, Project Monitoring and Controlling, and Project Closure. Amongst these five phases, it is said that the Project Monitoring and Controlling phase is the most difficult of all phases. This, Project Monitoring and Controlling phase, is considered difficult because during this phase:

You compare your planned work with the actual work that happens in your project
You identify deviation between the planned and the actual work
And you deploy corrective or preventive actions to minimize the impact of those deviations.

Similarly, every large project has several project management knowledge areas. Of these, Schedule Management is considered a critical knowledge area. According to the Project Management Institute, ineffective Schedule Management is one of the top seven reasons why projects fail. And project managers never want their projects to fail. So, it becomes imperative to effectively manage your project schedule and keep it on-track to achieve the desired project objectives.

These are the reasons why I have created this course which is a complete project management guide that specializes in Monitoring and Controlling your Project Schedule.

What's included in this course?

You will enroll in this course because you want to learn Monitoring and Controlling Your Project Schedule. By the end of this course, you will master the techniques involved in achieving this outcome. This course is a bridge between your current and the desired state in gaining the required Project Management knowledge and skills focused on Monitoring and Controlling Your Project Schedule.

This bridge is divided in four parts:

Part 1: focuses on two key factors: 1) Standard Project Schedule Reports to communicate the Schedule Progress and 2) Charts and Graphs to Monitor, Track, and Control Your Project Schedule.
Part 2: focuses on learning the key inputs involved in Monitoring, Tracking, and Controlling your Project Schedule.
Part 3: focuses on mastering the different analysis techniques to identify the scheduling problems.
Part 4: focuses on gaining expertise to use the techniques to solve scheduling problems like a PRO!

This will be your overall journey throughout this course. You will observe that everything related to managing your project’s schedule in the Monitoring and Controlling Phase of your project is covered in this course.

Who is this course for?

Practicing Project Managers: who want to master Monitoring and Controlling Project Skills for Schedule Management

You then shift gears to learn how to report project schedule progress by using the Project Schedule Reporting Tracker.
You learn three charts used extensively to monitor and track your projects: Timeline Chart, Gantt Chart, and Burndown Chart.
After this, you focus on understanding the various inputs to Monitor and Track your project schedule. These inputs include: The Schedule Management Plan, Schedule and Scope Baseline, Lesson's Learned Register, Project Calendar, Project Schedule, Resource Calendar, Schedule Data, Work Performance Data, and Organizational Process Assets.
Your next objective is to learn the different Data Analysis Techniques to identify gaps in Project Schedule Performance. These techniques include: Performance Reviews, Trend Analysis, Variance Analysis, What-If Scenario, and Project Management Information System (PMIS).
After imbibing these data analysis tools, you master the techniques to manage the identified project scheduling problems. These techniques include: the different Proactive Approaches to Scheduling Problems, Project Fast Tracking, Project Crashing, Schedule vs. Cost, and Project Scope Reduction.
