This unique interactive tutorial does something that no other guide on the market can: it gives you an opportunity to learn firsthand all the ins and outs of project management.

As you work through a variety of simulated projects, your progress is monitored by a savvy mentor who analyzes your decisions, poses a number of realistic problems that you solve using Microsoft Project, and offers invaluable advice and guidance on how to do it even better next time. The first and only truly hands-on guide to successful project management ever created, Effective Project Management: Provides novices with a complete introduction to the principles of sound project management Offers experienced project managers an opportunity to fine-tune their skills Describes all the proven management tools and techniques you need to stay on schedule and within budget without compromising quality Adheres to the Project Management Institute's curriculum outline (PMBOK) and follows the necessary course requirements for professional certification Provides a simulated environment on CD-ROM in which to apply the principles, tools, and techniques described in the book
