SCHEDULING VS. PLANNING
There has been an absence of quality training for project planners internationally. A few short courses are offered covering scheduling theory, but none of these offer real in-depth training to equip project planners with knowledge and skill to be able to schedule a project accurately, update schedules correctly and report the progress efficiently.
Even more problematic, the misconception exists that a course in a scheduling software package such as primavera P6 or Microsoft Project will be sufficient to school an aspirant Project Planner in the skills to plan and schedule projects professionally. This is a dangerous mistake that can cost companies huge amounts of money.
QUALITY TRAINING
QUALITY PRINCIPLES VS SOFTWARE KNOWLEDGE
PPS Training Academy was born from a passion to provide quality training in planning and scheduling principles.
The more students we guide through the course, the more we realize the value of quality principles above software knowledge.
MESSAGE TO OUR STUDENTS
Be the master of your scheduling tools.
Too many project planners are led (controlled) by software calculations without understanding what it is based upon.
FUTURE PLANS
An advanced project scheduling course and shorter courses for non-planner project personnel and software courses with a broader scope are in the pipeline.
