    I'll be able to navigate through P6 quickly even as a new user

    Being so new to P6 and construction scheduling in general, I really appreciated that you took the time to break down Project Management and the EPS/OBS structure, the icons, and every little tab and window. Overall, I thought the course was great. I learned a ton and feel like I'll be able to navigate through P6 quickly even as a new user. Val was a great presenter and I thoroughly enjoyed the course. Thank you!

    Val is knowledgeable and professional. Thanks for the training Valerie - I'll be sure to connect with you with any basic questions as I begin by P6 Journey.
