Scope statement

From first activity to a schedule that holds up.

Primavera P6 will let you build almost anything, including a schedule with open ends, hard constraints masking real delay and a critical path that means nothing. The software does not stop it. Proper training does, and the cost of that training is small next to one unreliable baseline on a major program.

Participants build a realistic project from an empty EPS through to a statused update. Along the way they learn WBS and coding, logic and calendars, resource and cost loading, baselining, progressing and reporting, and at each step they learn why the practice matters and what a reviewer, an owner or an opposing expert will look for.

RFI log · questions answered

What leaders ask us first.

Straight answers. If yours isn't logged here, raise it with us directly. A principal will respond.

Do participants need prior scheduling experience?

Not for the foundation level. Advanced sessions assume working familiarity with P6 and CPM.

Do you provide software for the course?

Training environment arrangements are confirmed at booking. Private cohorts can work in your own P6 environment where that suits.

Is this an official Oracle certification?

No. Participants receive a RichardBarkley certificate of completion. The content is relevant to Oracle's own certification paths, but it is not an Oracle-accredited course.

The next step

Command the date you announced.

Book a 45-minute program review with a senior principal. You will leave with an independent read of where your schedule and cost really stand, and the three moves that matter most.
