Intermediate Project Training Course

Our Intermediate Project training course can be carried out in all versions of Microsoft.

All of our courses are full day courses, typically running from 9:30am to 4pm with two coffee breaks and a lunch break throughout to break up the course. Timings can be slightly flexible though to fit in with your needs. We can also create a bespoke course to tailor the contents of the course to your needs. Just ask, we’d be happy to help.

FAQs

Does the training cover the latest Microsoft Office 365 updates?
Yes it does. Most of the content of our Project training courses transfers across and is compatible with any future updates of Microsoft 365. We also regularly review all of our Project 365 training courses to ensure any new features and tools are not missed out.

 

How is the Intermediate Project training course structured?
Our Intermediate course builds on and covers topics from the basic course in more detail. We do also cover some new topics too. The topics are organised to build on throughout the day. There are 2 short breaks, one mid morning and one mid afternoon, and lunch break planned in to break up the whole day course.

 

How do I know if this is the right level course for my Project training needs?
As this is the Intermediate level course, you will be a regular user of Project in your work. To know if this is the right level, have a look at the content on the basic course and if you know at least 80% of it confidently then you are ok to do this level. If you are unsure, we advise it is best to do the basic level first to make sure you are confident enough to benefit from this level. With Project we recommend attending both levels of course to ensure a good rounded understanding of the package.

 

How can Microsoft Project training benefit my business?
Project is used by businesses in all sectors and so any training will benefit your members of staff greatly. There are many benefits including increasing your team’s productivity, strengthening abilities for effective communication and improve resource management in projects, all helping your business stand out in any industry.

Ashorne Hill – Training staff in Excel, Word and PowerPoint

Excellent training delivery, courses being small in numbers worked very well for our staff, giving them time for any additional questions/content.
Smooth process from start to finish and excellent that trainers could provide individual laptops for staff that didn’t have their own.
Very informative training – we like the fact we can keep notes to refer back to while at work
