Mr. Tom, thank you very much. I can't believe your lessons are free, as I have paid for many seminars and found that your approach and teachings are the best, and it's all for free, thank you a lot .
Thanks Yoshiki, I very appreciate your support. I also have a playlist MS Project the course that I provide download links to files if someone wants to follow along in detail.
This is the best video I have come across on MS projects, although just an intro. Looking forward to the rest of the series, especially the part on tracking etc
Thanks a lot Tom for such a gold mine... I am trying to make a project plan for purchasing some valves and pipework .. my question is Can I enter the items description along with all relevant data such as price, lead times and vendor details into the resources sheet ? Then assign the resources to tasks and it would automatically populate the lead time as a duration for the task?
No I’m afraid you have to determine the lead time and enter it directly to the task. Now if you want you can add a hyperlink to files that explain the vendor details but I would only do that if your file is on a server or in the cloud because if you move the project link it loses the hyperlinks.
Fantastic videos, thank you ! I can see there are 3 courses, of which this one (MS Project Made Easy) seem to be the "easiest", the next level is "MS Project Tutorials" (also mentioned in the description above), and "MS Project The Course is the most advanced? Is this a fair assesment? Do you recommend to take those consecutively, in this order of difficulty? Thanks again !!!
I think you will find MS Project the course the best as it has links to files for you to download and follow along with. Ms project made easy so far has more advanced topics in the later videos
Thanks Tom for providing an excellent beginners guide to MS Project. I have a one year long construction project. We had several monthly updates and moving the task incomplete parts to status date extending the activity duration. Now, when I move the activity it moves the start earlier in time. How do I fix this?
Hi Namir, im not exactly sure what is going on. Check my update, recovery videos and see if that helps. Videos 5 and 6 you can see the links under the playlist on my channel
Yes project plan 3, I’ve just started a new MSPROJECT seeries if that is what you are referring to. It is basically the most current version of project professional but is constantly updated. You pay a monthly subscription fee.
How did you calculate the duration of the activities ? Or is from the rate analysis activity multiply by the quantity of the activity ? If we’re the case how do you fit your resources and the links between activities in order to get the duration from the rate analysis
Hi Pablo, the durations were just selected for the exercise and the links then calculate the dates. Durations are calculated based on historical data, input from trades and vendors, and experience with collaboration. All the best
Better quality, goes onto more specific topics once you get to about video 10. I have also posted a playlist MS Project the course where in the description i have a google drive link and you can follow with downloaded files. Hope that helps
This is exactly how software was rolled out at my last company which is a big mechanical contractor i Southern California. Two of the biggest were Salesforce CRM and MS Project in which the company paid for 3 people to train with the CRM and then they were going to show everyone else. Yeah right .
Like anything if you give it to people that rarely use it they won’t remember it. But if you do use it you can reference particular videos to refresh. I find that helps a lot Paul. The other issue is if people don’t keep to their commitments Ms Project won’t help other then to show who is the problem.
Hi Adrianna check my playlists for MS Project the course, these are the newest lessons and I provide a google drive link to each lessons files, that should help you.
Mr. Tom, thank you very much. I can't believe your lessons are free, as I have paid for many seminars and found that your approach and teachings are the best, and it's all for free, thank you a lot .
