  The main purpose of Project Web Access (PWA) is to improve communication between project managers and those assigned to deliver and update project tasks. Updating task information through a web site will eliminate boundaries and provide seamless integration to Microsoft Project. Team members can update the web site from anywhere and anytime which adds to the success of the overall project.

 
 

The courseware is designed for both the task owner and the project manager. Chapter 7 focuses on using Microsoft Project to create a project and upload to the PWA server. This chapter is not necessary for the Task Owners which will work with the web interface features only. The courseware does not cover how to administrate the PWA server, only the end user capabilities.

 
  Course Length for the Project Manager: 6-7 hours  
  Course Length for the Task Owner: 3 Hours
