A project manager should not start executing a project unless the work has been defined and a viable schedule and budget are built. This class focuses specifically on the schedule. Typically a project manager doesn’t have a similar schedule from a prior project to start with and must build the schedule from scratch. This class introduces proven processes and techniques for building a viable schedule. The class then focuses on two aspects of schedule management.

• Recognizing schedule problems when they occur or are at risk of occurring
