Course Code:	MQ 577
Course Abstract:	This course is specially designed for users moving from Primavera Project Planner (P3) to P6. Numerous charts list how P3 fields and functionality map to Primavera 5.0/6.0, enabling users to leverage their existing knowledge of P3 and rapidly adapt to new features in P6. The course begins with navigation, menus, and terminology in P6, and introduces new ways to view layouts and run reports. The course also details how basic tasks in the project management life cycle are executed in P6, including how to create activities, assign and analyze resources, and update the project plan. An appendix at the back of the manual covers how to convert projects from P3 to P6. (Please note that this course is designed for existing users of P3. Those who wish to learn Primavera P6, but are not P3 users, should register for MQ 564.) Professional Development and Continuing Education Units: Earns 13 PDUs or 1.2 CEUs PMI Program Number - 108
