Project Management Lunch & Learn

Want to get better at using the Eclipse Project Portfolio Management System? Then grab your lunch and head over to McGraw 1 to participate in the next Project Management Lunch & Learn, hosted by  ICIT’s project management guru, Stacy Scholtka.

At the first Project Management Lunch & Learn, several  Eclipse PPM functions were reviewed, including how to do advanced searches, how to add tasks to projects, and using the PPM time sheet view, along with other topics such as what is reviewed each week at the Management Team meeting.

The next Project Management Lunch & Learn will be on August 5, from 12:00 –12:45 in MG 1, and will be similar to the last meeting, for anyone who was unable to attend. The meetings are optional. but are a great opportunity to get your Eclipse PPM questions answered.

Bring your lunch, your insights, and your questions!
