From Primavera P6 to Oracle Primavera Cloud (OPC)

Why this training?

We know a lot of project controls professionals that have some years of experience with Primavera P6. Recent years, Primavera Cloud* is growing its market share, since it is a tool made for collaboration with colleagues, clients or subcontractors. It also integrates multiple domains such as scheduling, risks, scope, change management, tasks (last planner or lean), dashboards & reports, costs and resources in one application.

The goal of this training is not to educate you on how to set up a schedule or how a baseline or calendar works, but to show you how to do in Primavera Cloud what you did in Primavera P6. We teach you the main structural things that have changed next to the small, but important settings that can make your scheduling-life easier.

* Don’t confuse Primavera Cloud and Primavera P6 EPPM Cloud.
