Develop practical project scheduling skills by learning how to analyze scope, manage requirements, build Work Breakdown Structures (WBS), and create activity networks that support successful project execution. This course provides a structured introduction to project scheduling practices aligned with PMI-SP principles and industry-standard scheduling methodologies.
The course begins by introducing the PMI-SP framework, scheduling fundamentals, and the role of project scheduling in achieving project objectives. Learners will understand key scheduling concepts, scheduling deliverables, and how effective planning contributes to project success.
As the course progresses, learners explore project scope management and requirement processes, including planning, defining, collecting, and managing requirements. The course demonstrates how tools such as the Requirement Traceability Matrix (RTM) help maintain alignment between project requirements, scope, and deliverables.
The course then focuses on Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) development, covering decomposition techniques, scope baselines, WBS dictionaries, and scope control methods. Learners will gain practical skills in structuring project work and creating planning frameworks that improve project visibility and control.
In the final modules, learners explore activity definition, sequencing techniques, time management principles, and network diagrams. They will learn how to identify dependencies, visualize workflows, and construct project schedules that support efficient execution and resource coordination.
What makes this course unique is its step-by-step progression from scheduling fundamentals to practical scheduling application, integrating scope management, requirements traceability, WBS development, and network scheduling into one cohesive learning experience. By the end of the course, learners will be equipped to create structured project schedules, improve planning accuracy, and strengthen their readiness for professional scheduling roles and PMI-SP certification preparation.
Create a Project Management Tracker using Microsoft Excel
As a small business owner, budgets are often tight for the "extras." Often times, this means that some of those high-value marketing tools cannot be offered. Small business owners should turn to free or low-cost alternatives. An easy-to-use and manageable alternative is a free online version of Microsoft Excel from Microsoft Office 365. In this project, you will learn how to create a simple project management tracking sheet.
At the end of this project, you will have the Excel project management tracking template for the next presentation of your development project.
This course equips you with the foundational skills to expertly manage the entire travel booking lifecycle. You will learn to efficiently book diverse travel products across various supplier platforms, utilise electronic booking systems, and generate all essential professional documentation, including confirmations, itineraries, and financial records. What truly sets this course apart is our unique focus on profitability; you will gain the highly sought-after ability to calculate booking yields. This critical skill allows you to analyse and evaluate the financial performance of travel arrangements, moving beyond simple administration to making strategic, profit-conscious decisions. By completing this training, you will not only master operational efficiency but also learn how to add measurable value to any travel business from your first day, setting you apart as a strategic asset rather than just an administrator.
Introduction to Data Engineering on Google Cloud - Français

This hands-on beginner-level course equips learners with the essential skills to design, construct, and implement desktop applications using PyQt, a powerful Python GUI framework. Through step-by-step instruction and interactive examples, learners will explore fundamental widgets, layout management, and user input controls, as well as menus, dialogs, toolbars, and the signal-slot event mechanism.
Structured into two comprehensive modules, the course first establishes a solid foundation in GUI building with basic components such as QLabel, QLineEdit, QRadioButton, and QComboBox. It then progresses to more functional elements including sliders, menus, and dialogs, culminating in the integration of toolbars and event-driven interactions.
By the end of this course, learners will be able to apply PyQt components confidently to build functional and visually structured desktop interfaces, enabling them to create, customize, and respond to user actions effectively.
This course helps learners transform scattered AI preprocessing code into clean, reusable, and testable Python utilities that meet modern MLOps expectations. Across two focused lessons, learners explore advanced programming constructs—such as generators, decorators, and structured logging—that make ML workflows modular and maintainable. They then apply software-engineering principles to design standards-compliant Python packages that integrate smoothly into real AI pipelines. Through videos, readings, hands-on exercises, and a guided Coursera Lab, learners practice refactoring preprocessing steps, structuring packages using current Python packaging standards, managing dependencies, and writing unit tests with pytest. By the end of the course, learners will have the skills to build and test a functional Python package suitable for internal PyPI publishing and production-ready machine learning work.
In this project, you will use Google Docs to create a document. You will be able to format text by creating paragraph form and setting line spacing. You will also learn how to create headers and footers along with sub headers. Tables and charts will be used within the document. You will learn a couple of methods for inserting charts that automatically update within the document. A review of how to share the document and protect the document while sharing will also be covered in the project.
Note: This course works best for learners who are based in the North America region. We’re currently working on providing the same experience in other regions.
VR with Unity: Build your first Meta Quest VR Project
Are you a Unity developer looking to break into VR development? Since there's almost no industry where VR doesn't offer new possibilities, there is no better time than now to get started. This 2 hour long Guided Project will provide learners with the technical foundation needed to get started developing for the Meta Quest in Unity on Windows. The Quest series of VR devices from Meta are notable for their ability to be used without being tethered to a PC. By the end of this guided project, learners will be able to set up a Quest device for development, start creating a virtual environment, and add functionality to interact with that environment in various ways.
To be prepared for this project, learners must have a solid background in Unity development including working with prefabs, using the Inspector, configuring project settings and so on.
*Warning to learners with motion sensitivity: this project contains virtual reality screen capture as part of the instruction.*
Unreal Engine: Build a Turret Shooter with Blueprints
This hands-on course guides learners through the process of designing, developing, and deploying a turret-based shoot-em-up game using Unreal Engine 4 Blueprints—without writing a single line of code. The course begins with project setup, turret mechanics, projectile systems, and enemy behaviors. Learners will then implement core gameplay systems like player health, damage feedback, and enemy wave logic.
Advancing further, the course teaches how to construct functional UI elements including HUDs, pause menus, game-over screens, and main menus. Finally, learners will integrate audio, configure game levels, and package their project into a playable standalone build.
By the end of this course, learners will have not only created a fully functional action game but also gained the confidence to apply, modify, and extend gameplay features using Blueprint scripting in their own projects.
