Description:

Microsoft Project is a project management tool widely used by project managers today. Its' ability to support project managers to define a schedule, assign resources to tasks and track project status has been instrumental in contributing to project success. However, it can be a challenge for a project manager to share project information and collaborate with the project team with Microsoft Project alone. Office 365 can complement Microsoft Project 2010 and address this gap.

In this session, you will learn how to effectively create a Microsoft Project Plan, create a SharePoint-based Project Management Information System (PMIS) with Office 365 and integrate Microsoft Project information with SharePoint 2010. In addition, we'll cover best practices around utilizing SharePoint with Microsoft Office, Lync and mobile devices to empower a project team to share relevant information, facilitate better collaboration and build project management dashboards.

All PMP certified attendees will earn 1 PDU for attending this session.
