Software Training Program Implementation Plan using MS Project

This project outlines a software training program designed for ABC Company's 50,000 employees, aiming to enhance productivity through Microsoft software training (Windows 10, Office 365, Project 2016). Managed by the Human Resources department, the program offers evening and Saturday courses taught by qualified volunteer employees compensated at $40 per hour. The project encompasses requirement analysis, vendor selection for training materials, classroom setup, employee surveys for course preferences, instructor recruitment, and course implementation within six months. Key phases include initial planning, execution, and closing, tracked via a Gantt chart detailing tasks, durations, and milestones such as kick-off, plan approval, course completion, and program closure. The program also includes course evaluation and employee certification to ensure effectiveness and track progress.
