Monitoring Schedule Performance with Project 2010

Once project planning is complete, the actual project work begins. Your job as a project manager is to diligently track the progress of this work so that if schedule slippage occurs, you can make adjustments and manage the remaining work effectively. This course covers setting and maintaining project baselines, which are used to compare the planned work with actual work.
