Ms Project (Five days)

 

Microsoft Project is a powerful business tool that allows a user to plan, monitor, and schedule projects using resources such as people, equipment, time, and money. It provides easy-to-use tools that help in the analysis of project information by using Gantt charts, graphs, tables, and views to track a project and quickly identify when the project is not progressing according to plan.
