As someone who’s new in this field of work, I was able to quickly pick up and comprehend the program and apply the case studies and scenarios to help further my knowledge and career.
I’d definitely recommend the P6 Fundamentals course for those moving into the field of scheduling full-time. Also, recommended for supervisors who oversee direct reports using the program as it allows one to gain insight and understanding of the program’s capabilities.
The course was laid out well. Tracy is extremely knowledgeable with P6 Pro and did an amazing job at instructing. I like the pace of her instructions and how she kept circling back to reinforce the key concepts of her learning lessons.
Tracy was an awesome instructor, especially considering the fact that her classes are virtual. Tracy almost made the course feel like the social and learning aspects of the course were in person, but with all the benefits of virtual learning. Great pace, explanations, etc.
Thank you for all of your help on this course. I thought the course provided a great overview on scheduling and how to apply this in P6. Also, the requirement for the students to follow along on their own screen is a great way to keep people active and engaged in the course content. Appreciate all the help!
Learned a lot in this course. it was very engaging and walked away with the ability to perform tasks in a software I had never used before.
This course is perfect for anybody who is familiar with Scheduling processes and terminology and require ‘hands-on’ instruction. The instructor was very knowledgeable and patient and was able to fully answer all my questions. The reference manual is going to be very handy.
The annotated screenshots provided in the course manual are appreciated and will be a helpful reference in the future. Course format was very useful with the amount of hands-on exercises and case studies.
This course gave me a general understanding about Primavera and opened my mind to the usage of it in the field. The structure of the course is very clear and the methodology introduced me to an easy way to learn and practice at the same time. I highly recommend it.
Keep up the good work Tracy. Thank you for being very patient with me throughout the course. You have been a great mentor and by the end of the course I did not feel overwhelmed. Enjoyed the training a lot and I hope to remember everything that you taught us. Thank you for providing the course manuals, we will have these with us for life.
The course was extremely well laid out with a professional looking manual/workbook. Tracy did a good job at clearly conveying information towards the participants making sure to take frequent pauses to ask if they had any questions when concluding key points. I had little to no experience before taking this course but now feel confident in my ability to make and maintain reliable schedules, along with the strategically planned manual to look back at if I forgot how to do anything. I would definitely recommend this course to anybody that wants to learn P6 and plan to go with P6 Consulting in the future to learn the advanced material!
I used to look at P6 like it was a complicated software I would never understand. After the course, I can easily navigate and apply it to my work.
The course is very well composed, and the attention to detail and painstaking effort to build this course, text book and study materials is obvious. It is well thought out and organized.
This has been a great introduction to P6 and the reference material is meticulously laid out. I look forward to having an opportunity to working with the program in future. I enjoyed taking this course on a one-to-one basis and Tracy is very experienced and knowledgeable with training and presenting the material.
Tracy was very informative and lead the course with great knowledge. She explains different techniques and different tools that can be used in the software very well. I will be recommending any future associates of mine who are looking to pursue training on this software.
