Summary
In this chapter, you received a warm welcome into the world of MS Project. By creating a simple but fully functional project, you were introduced to the major concepts of tasks, linking and dependencies, Project schedules, resources, and allocations, and finally views and reports. You were also gently introduced to the complex user interface of MS Project, and you should now be able to navigate your way around Project. I urge you to work on the practice assignment, as this will really cement your learning and permanently remove any fear of using Project.
In the next chapter, we will dive deeper in to scheduling concepts and look even more closely at the user interface of Project, specifically aspects related to the Gantt chart. This will give you the skills and knowledge required to start using Project in your professional work.
