Portfolio, Program, Projects – How to Manage Effectively using Microsoft Project

Project Management Institute (PMI)® Professional Development Units (PDUs): This Webinar is eligible for 1 PMI® PDU in the Strategic Category of the Talent Triangle. Event Description: How can you effectively utilize Project to manage many projects with multi-level project structures? One way to help with managing multiple projects, programs or portfolio, is to understand how to optimize the use of sub-project/master project capabilities of Project for the Desktop or Project Server/Online. It seems there is a need for multi-level planning too. Portfolio – Program – Project OR Program – Workstream – Project OR Product – Program – Project OR Organization – Department – Project. Having more than just two levels of roll-up and links is common. Can Project Pro accommodate and enhance your ability to manage multi-level cross-project linking and roll-ups?  In this session you will learn how to manage these types of scenarios so you can effectively use Project to enhance your productivity working in a multi-level project/program structure. You will also learn how to leverage the reporting tools to generate effective reports across multiple projects at level 1 (portfolio), 2 (program) or 3 (project) depending on your communication needs.
