Program Overview: What is Microsoft Project?
Understand your training needs around Microsoft Project. This program gives your team practical scheduling capability: building realistic schedules, managing resources and costs, and controlling projects with earned value. It focuses on the projects your teams actually run.
Enhance your team's Capability and Performance through guided hands-on practice. Your team will work through task networks, resource leveling, baselines, and critical path analysis, building real schedules in instructor-led labs. Every schedule is reviewed with your planners, and the program closes with a full project plan.
Upskill and reskill project managers, planners, and schedulers with one consistent scheduling standard. The program develops the day-to-day work habits that make schedules reliable: honest task estimates, leveled resources, and disciplined tracking.
Improve Collaboration and teamwork between planners, project managers, and stakeholders. The program ends with a capstone where your team builds and presents a complete project plan.

Training Delivery Modes: Virtual, Onsite and Hybrid
Choose the format that fits your teams and calendar. Every mode is instructor-led and built around the same guided labs, templates, and tracking toolkit.
Hybrid Training
Instructor-led sessions that combine live teaching with guided hands-on labs. Your team learns scheduling with an instructor, then builds and controls plans in supervised lab time, whether joining from your office or remotely.

- Scheduling labs adapted to each setting
- Cohort continuity across both formats
- Scheduling built around project calendars
Onsite Training
An instructor delivers the program at your office, running scheduling labs and the capstone with your team in the room. Exercises use your projects and standards for maximum relevance.
- Delivered at your office or a venue you choose
- Your projects woven into every lab

Build Defensible Project Schedules With Resource, Baseline, and Progress Evidence
Edstellar connects Microsoft Project skills with the planning decisions behind a usable schedule. Participants establish calendars and task networks, assign resources, and baseline the plan before tracking variances and examining the critical path. The complete project plan is reviewed for scheduling logic, resource feasibility, and a clear explanation of changes.
- Step 01
Consult
We review scheduling responsibilities and project-planning familiarity to identify gaps in task dependencies, resource allocation, baselines, progress tracking, and critical-path interpretation.
- Step 02
Plan
We establish project files and calendars before linked schedules, resources, and costs, then practice tracking and advanced schedule analysis ahead of the full-plan presentation.
- Step 03
Align
We align project scheduling expertise with managers, planners, and schedulers, adjusting tool instruction to participants' project types, planning standards, and Microsoft Project experience.
- Step 04
Customize
Sample tasks, calendars, resource limits, and progress updates reflect familiar projects, enabling relevant milestone and variance exercises without altering operational delivery plans.
- Step 05
Execute
Participants link tasks, resolve overallocations, establish baselines, and analyze progress variances, receiving feedback on dependency choices, resource effects, and critical-path interpretation.
- Step 06
Evaluate
We assess the project plan for coherent calendars and task logic, feasible resource assignments, a clear baseline, and progress explanations supported by variance and critical-path evidence.
