Planning and Scheduling is a major and vital activity when it comes to managing a project successfully. According to AACE International, there are less than 2000 planning and scheduling professionals worldwide, and the same number applies to scheduling professionals as per PMI standards. This means that it is rare to meet one. This course provides an opportunity to become one of the few. It combines the best practices and methods from various project management, planning and scheduling books and courses. To be recognized as a professional planner (PSP - Planning and Scheduling Professional) by AACE International or PMI (PMI-SP - Scheduling Professional) requires a rigorous exam of 5 hours and 3.5 hours respectively.

This course is the Planning and Scheduling Definitive Guide. It covers topics such as what is planning, what is scheduling, what makes the perfect plan, the difference between planning and scheduling, and whether planning and scheduling is a skill. It is tailored to make the learner one of the planning and scheduling professionals.

The skill and knowledge of planning and scheduling are often underappreciated and unrecognized. Many do not know what a planner should do, how to do it, and how important they are to the success of the project. Finding a professional planner to handle the project time, allocate costs correctly, and save the company money is difficult. This course is created to cover this knowledge gap and make learners more confident when applying for a job as a planner or even if they are working in a different position or as a project manager.

The contribution of a planner to projects is huge. It can totally affect the project's goals. A project can fail miserably if planned wrong, and it can take twice as long and cost twice as much if not planned correctly. This is why the motto “Fail to plan is planning to fail” is so important. There should be a considerable effort in planning the project and then scheduling the project.
