Offline Primavera 6 and Planning Techniques Course – Middle East

Dear everyone, I have received number of requests asking me to prepare an offline course for Oracle Primavera 6 and Planning Techniques. Before starting the course content, I would like to produce myself to whoever did not attend any previous courses with me.


My name is Hany Ismael; I am Civil Engineer graduated in 2003, PMP certified on 2010, and currently studying master in Management of construction and infrastructure project from Liverpool University in UK (Online). I am very interested in project management field, and I have worked as a planning engineer in number of mega projects, which gives me valuable experience in planning and controlling projects. Currently I am working with multi-national companies as a planning manager in a landmark project in Riyadh – Saudi Arabia.



I had created two courses on YouTube (Arabic and English) in Primavera and Excel, and I received amazing feedback from the attendees. Although, the online courses is a great way to lean, but still the offline courses is the main source of learning because of the physical contact and the follow up.primavera course

Who should attend the course?


This course is targeting the Planning Engineers, Project Managers, Construction Managers, Site Engineers, and whoever is working on a construction project. If you are interested to create, review, or understand the project management plan including primavera training, you are kindly invited to attend this course.



 


What is different in this course?


Most of the other primavera training courses will only teach you how the menus and tools works on primavera. However, practical life is much more complicated. I believe that whoever is learning the Oracle Primavera program want to be able to create a professional time schedule by the end of the course, and primavera training only is not sufficient to let you do so.


This course is a result of my 11 years of planning experience, I will not only teach you Oracle Primavera Program, I will teach you the Planning Techniques, Skills, and Step by Step how to create a professional detailed time schedule.


Do not worry! It is very easy. You do not need to memorize anything; we are simply learn what we need to lean by the time we need to use ;). In another words, the course structure is to create a detailed time schedule, so we will start creating the time schedule and learn primavera and other tools while we are creating the schedule.


It is not only Primavera: Oracle primavera is such one tool used on planning. However, before you start using this tool, you need to understand; what is the planning? Why we do the planning? How to create an effective planning plan? In addition to primavera, I will teach you the planning and management concepts such as Earned Value Management (EVM), Critical Patch Method (CPM), and Key Performance Index (KPI).


You will create a complete project from A to Z: I will give you a real bill of quantities for an existing project, and gradually you will create a full management plan by yourself. At the end of the course, you will have your own project created by you and reviewed by me.


What you will learn:



  1. Understand the primavera schedules.



  2. Create a detailed time schedules in primavera from the bill of quantities.



  3. Create Cash flow in primavera.



  4. Create Manpower histogram in primavera.



  5. Create Shop Drawings Tracking Log.



  6. Create Materials Tracking Log.



  7. Update the time schedule.



  8. Create the Progress reports based on Earned Value Management (EVM).



  9. Evaluate the project status and identify the critical activities on the project.



  10. Learn how to create graphical reports in Microsoft Excel using primavera data.



  11. Learn the important Excel formulas to accelerate your work.



  12. How to create a professional reports (Weekly / Monthly).


Course Duration: course duration is four weeks, three lectures a week, and each lecture three hours. Total hours is 36 hours.

Download Planning Engineers Preparation Course for Free

Now the Planning Engineers Preparation Course using Primavera and Excel is totally Free of Charge. Furthermore, you can download it along with supporting files to watch it offline.



To whom do not know what is the preparation course for Planning Engineers, About 2 years ago i made a Free Online Course in Management of structure projects using Primavera 6 and Excel 2010 , I believe this course was useful for new planning engineers and i received amazing feedback from engineers whoever thought this course was useful for them. However that course was in Arabic language and since the time i prepared that course i learned too many new techniques which was not included on my previous course, Therefore i am on my way to prepare a new course in English and add to this course all my experience i have gained since i prepared the first one and apply all lessons learned from the previous one.



What is different in Planning Engineers Preparation course ?p


There are many online / offline courses which could teach you Primavera Project Planner, Excel or even Project Management, but i did not find any course which can teach you how to be a professional planning engineer, Engineering Planning and Management, you may know how to use primavera or excel very well, This knowledge not necessarily good enough to help you create / monitor a time schedule. This course will be a step by step practical procedure to create a detailed time schedule and project management plan, i will teach you what you need to know in the proper stage of creating the detailed time schedule i.e. (Learn what you need to know by the time you need to use it).



Who need to attend this course ?


This course is mainly for new engineers, whoever want to change the career from other engineering sector to planning engineer and any one want to know how to create / monitor project detailed time schedule and project management plan. However even if you are a senior planning engineer i am sure you will find something new in my course (when i created my first course i thought that i know every thing in primavera and excel, but from the questions and problems i have been asked by the course attendees i recognized that i was missing a lot).



 



This course is available from 3 different sources:


1- From my website http://www.planningengineer.net/courses/preparation-planning-engineers/

Information versus knowledge

Knowing lots of information is something good. However, knowing what to do with this information is the key of success, it is the Knowledge.


Information versus knowledge


I remember my first training course in primavera 3, this course taught me lot of information about the primavera capabilities and characteristics. However, I did not know by this time how to create a time schedule using primavera; I recognized that having the information is not enough; I need the knowledge as well.


When I saw this photo for the first time, it drew my full attention, it really worth 1000 words.
