Primavera Training - P3 (601)

Get started with P3 through hands-on, basic Primavera training. Participants will gain a thorough background in the concepts of planning and scheduling while learning P3. This three-day course leads you through nine hands-on workshops that create and track an entire project to completion, using the three basic elements of project management: schedules, resources and costs. Scheduling techniques will be covered.
