MS Project is a very intuitive tool. It just takes a few minutes to install and you can start using it in a breeze. You can do amazing things with it.  However, sometimes it starts giving unexpected results.

It does things as if it has a mind of its own. It becomes extremely frustrating, especially for the beginners, because it does a few calculations in the background and changes the schedule data on its own.

Task Types is one such topic where MS Project can surprise you with its own background work. In this webinar, you will learn everything that is there to know about the task types.

You will learn about the fundamentals of task types, why they are required, and how can you change default type. This webinar will help you to use task types properly in your project.

Learning Objectives:

1. Learn about basics of MS Project Task Types.
2. Gain a practical perspective on Task Types.
3. Use different Task Types in their project(s).
