Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Author
As a project controls consultant I have used a number of planning and scheduling software packages for the management of a range of project types and sizes. The first books I published were user guides/training manuals for Primavera SureTrak, P3 and Microsoft Project users. These were well received by professional project managers and schedulers, so I decided to turn my attention to Primavera Enterprise. This book follows the same proven layout of my previous books. I trust this book will assist you in understanding how to use Primavera Enterprise on your projects.

Project Planning & Scheduling Using P3e/c by Paul E. Harris,
This review is from: Project Planning & Scheduling Using Primavera Enterprise P3e & P3e/c version 3.5 (Spiral-bound)
I have had classroom Primavara clases back in the 90's when it was DOS-based, and refresher classes in 2006 The presentation by Mr. Harris in his book is very good. Classroom depends on the instructor teaching as much as he/she can in the two and three day courses, with the class book being just a guide. The speed of the class depends on those attending. Some learn faster, some slower. Using Mr. Harris' book you can learn at your own pace. I recommend you do both. There is no substitue for having an instructor to ask questions. Read Mr. Harris' book then sign up with a class in your location. The classroom study plus this book should give you a good understanding of Primavera Enterprise. Keep the book handy for quick reference. If you don't use P3e regularily, you forget things and this book provides refresher information
