Чему вы научитесь

  • Explain how activities and milestones are derived from a work breakdown structure
  • Apply the finish-to-start, start-to-start and finish-to-finish dependency types to sequence work correctly
  • Estimate activity durations and distinguish transparent contingency from hidden padding
  • Calculate the critical path and float for a small network and explain what they mean for delivery
  • Baseline a schedule and track progress against it honestly
  • Evaluate crashing and fast-tracking as compression options, including their cost and risk trade-offs
