What you can expect…
Microsoft Project 2000 is the latest in a series of powerful project management programs designed for use in the Windows environment. Project 2000 will help you build project plans, track work completed, account for variances in your project plans, and communicate with others to update information or share reports.
This course is built around an excellent text, but is designed to use the power of the internet so you can compare ideas and information with your instructor and fellow students. As soon as you have enrolled, Syllabus and Lesson Sheets will be available to you for your use as instructed.
As your instructor, I will be a cheerleader and helper while you learn to use MS Project 2000 to make life easier and more productive. Week by week, we will work through key program features so you can enter and work with project descriptions, tasks, resources, timelines and costing. In addition to your time online, you should expect to spend three or four hours each week practicing use of the program and applying it to projects you manage at home or at work.
Welcome aboard!

Technical Requirements
A word processing program. You will need a PC equipped with Windows 95 or later operating system, a CD of Microsoft Project 2000. Your PC should have a Pentium 75 MHz or higher processor, Windows 95 or later operating system, 20 to 32 Mb of RAM depending on the Windows version you are using, and at least 100 Mb of available hard-disk space for a typical installation. The CD-ROM distributed with the text includes an evaluation version of MS Project 2000 that lets you try all of the exercises in the text for 60 days. After then, it "times out" and you need the program anyway.
