Do I need project management experience to take this course?

What level of Microsoft Project knowledge do I need to take your courses?
Our Microsoft Project course is flexible and cater to all kinds of learners, no matter your current familiarity with the software.
If you’re unsure if the course is right for you, give us a call – we’re happy to help you find the perfect fit!
How is the course structured?
We believe in learning by doing! While we’ll demonstrate features, you’ll spend most of your time actually working in Microsoft Project, creating and modifying project plans.
Think of it like building with Lego, we’ll show you how the pieces fit together, then you’ll practice building yourself.
Do I need to have Microsoft Project installed before the course?
Yes! You’ll need to bring a laptop with Microsoft Project installed. A non-expired trial version works perfectly.
Don’t have a laptop? No problem! Let us know ahead of time, and we can provide one for you, you’ll just need to log in with your own Microsoft account. This ensures you’re set to start learning as soon as you arrive.
What course materials do you provide?
Manuals and Training Files
So that you won’t need to carry home a printed manual, all participants on our face-to-face courses receive a PDF copy of the course manual and associated training files.
However, a printed copy can be made available at an additional cost.
Participants also get a pen and A5 Notepad to scribble down all those lovely tips and tricks for later.

Will I be able to apply what I learn immediately in my work?

Contact us for any questions that might arise as you start applying your new skills.
Will I be a Microsoft Project expert after one day?
Let’s be realistic – becoming a Microsoft Project expert takes time and practice, just like project management itself. However, our course will give you a solid foundation in:
- Understanding how Microsoft Project works.
- Setting up projects correctly.
- Following best practices for project planning.
- Tracking progress effectively
Think of it like learning to drive – we’ll teach you how to operate the vehicle, but becoming a skilled driver takes practice!
How does the cost compare to other Microsoft Project training options?
Our pricing is competitive, and we believe we offer the best value.
Our courses are led by expert trainers, who provide hands on experiences using content that is constantly kept up to date. We also offer lifetime post-course support, which most other providers don’t.
When comparing costs, it’s important to consider the overall package and long-term benefits, not just the price tag.
What is the return on investment (ROI) of taking the course?
The ROI can be significant. Many of our students report increased productivity, ability to take on more complex tasks, and even career advancement after applying their new Microsoft Project skills.
While it’s hard to put an exact figure on it, consider how much time you could save each week by being more efficient over a year, this can add up to substantial time and cost savings for you or your organisation.
Lets use an intermediate course, priced at $385 with a 6 hour duration as an example. For a participant earning $40 per hour, the total investment, including opportunity cost, is $625 ($385 + $240).
We’ll now assume the course enables the participant to save 30 minutes per workday. In a typical work year with 250 workdays, this translates to 125 hours saved annually.
The value of time saved: 125 hours × $40/hour = $5,000 per year.
In this example, the course offers a substantial 700% ROI based on productivity gains alone. The participant’s investment breaks even in just over 6 workdays. This impressive return demonstrates the course’s potential to significantly improve efficiency in daily tasks, even with a conservative estimate of 30 minutes saved per day.
Can you explain what 'closed course' means?
A closed course is a specific type of training arrangement. Let me explain what it typically means:
A closed course, also known as a private course, is:
- Exclusively arranged for a single organisation or group.
- Not open to the general public.
- Often customised to meet the specific needs of the client.
Key features of a closed course:
- Attendees are typically from the same company or organisation.
- The content can be tailored to address specific organisational needs or challenges.
- The schedule is often more flexible, arranged to suit the client’s preferred dates and times.
- Usually held at the client’s premises or at the Keystroke Learning’s training facility.
- The group size can be adjusted based on the organisation’s requirements.
- Confidentiality is maintained as sensitive company information can be discussed freely.
Closed courses are beneficial for organisations that want to train a group of employees together, ensure consistent skill development across a team, or the company.
