Whereas LTC Organiser is designed specifically for translation project management, MS Project is widely used for project management in general.
MS Project is designed to assist project managers in developing plans, assigning resources to tasks, tracking progress, managing budgets and analysing workloads.
This course is not a tutorial for MS Project, but provides an insight into the possibilities it offers to translators and translation project managers. While it does not offer some specific features a translator might wish for, it does cater for managing more complex processes than many translators will need to accomplish. For deeper knowledge of the product, readers can easily use the internal MS Project tutorial
Like the other PM applications described in this course, this introduction to MS Project is organised according to the project processes identified in PM Course 1.
