Microsoft Project Training Courses
Microsoft Project allows all levels of project management to create, view and track their projects easily. At Mouse Training, we offer a wide range of MS Project courses that suits all levels of ability. Our Project training courses are designed with you in mind as we tailor all our courses to suit your needs. If you only need to update an existing project plan, then you should attend our Project Tracking Course, or if you need to get up to speed with Project quickly, then attending our Project Crash Course will be perfect. This is precisely why leading companies, private or public, choose us! Google, HSBC, etc etc etc (Yes, we did say Google!!!! We supply the best with the best!).
If you prefer, you could still attend a MS Project standard course, e.g. MS Project Introduction or MS Project Advanced with pre-defined course content. If you attend a public course, you could be stuck spending most time on Project tools you might never use. This is because public Project course suppliers have to run the exact Project course content which they sell with no regard to specific requirements! We are different. We do NOT run public Project training courses. All our MS Project training courses are closed and dedicated to you!
We offer MS Project training courses for all versions of MS Project, and for all levels, e.g. Project 2007 or 2003 Introduction or Advanced. We also run MS Project 2007 upgrade training courses if you simply need to get to grips with the new and enhanced functionality.
PS: We only use Microsoft certified Project trainers. All our trainers support their Project training delegates with questions after the course.
If you are not sure what version, level or exact course content you need, then feel free to Contact Us to discuss your needs. We do not have sales staff. When contacting us, you will talk to MS Project trainer, who will be able to provide free, no obligation help with your required course needs. Mouse Training is run by Microsoft Training Professionals, not sales people! We want to help you understand, gain and implement knowledge.
PS: A free Project Training Needs analysis is available to help you create a tailored Project Course.
