Description
"This course contains the use of artificial intelligence."
Subtitle: Master CPM scheduling, cost control, earned value, risk and reporting - the complete project-controls toolkit for engineers, planners and project managers.
Description: Project controls is what separates projects that finish on time and on budget from those that don't. This diploma takes you from the fundamentals to confident, end-to-end control of a project's schedule and cost.
You'll build a project from the ground up: define the scope and work breakdown structure, develop a logic-driven schedule, and learn to read it like a professional - critical path, total and free float, calendars, constraints and baselines. From there you'll move into the money: budgeting, time-phasing, cash flow and S-curves, and full Earned Value Management (PV, EV, AC, CPI, SPI, EAC and forecasting). You'll round it out with risk management, progress measurement, change control, and the reporting and narratives that turn raw data into decisions leadership can act on.
The focus is on principles that work in any tool, so the skills you gain you can transfer directly to Primavera P6, Microsoft Project and Excel-based controls.
What you'll learn
- Scope, WBS and activity definition that hold up under scrutiny
- Critical Path Method scheduling: logic, durations, float and the critical path
- Baselines, progress updating and schedule health checks
- Budgeting, time-phasing, cash flow and S-curves
- Earned Value Management and forecasting (EAC/ETC/TCPI)
- Risk identification, assessment and response
- Status reporting, KPI commentary and change control
Who it's for: Engineers, planners, schedulers, cost engineers and project managers who want a complete, practical grounding in project controls - and a strong foundation for PMP, PMI-SP or CCP study.
Who this course is for
