About PMP Masterclass Module 17 – Control Schedule and Agile Planning

Welcome Back! In this Module we have five video lessons. I will cover topics such as schedule crashing, milestones, the Control Schedule process, and Agile/Scrum planning techniques.

I recommend that you go through all of my exercises, exam questions/answers and Exam Cram Glossary. It may be helpful to first quickly review the previous four modules before proceeding further...

Module Content

Video lesson

Members Only Schedule Review

SCHEDULE REVIEW. Showing how many resources are on each task will allow you to determine in which time-period resources are needed, and their cumulative total. Resource Histogram. Each week’s total is shown as a bar whose height represents the number of people working on that (and any other activity) during that time-frame.

Video lesson

Members Only Control Schedule 1

The project must measure the project’s progress, and be able to recommend and implement, corrective and preventative actions that adjust the project in order to agree with the schedule baseline. Schedule changes can cause the need for resource-leveling or smoothing, plus lead and lag adjustment and schedule compression.

Text lesson

Members Only Control Schedule 2

Video lesson

The heart of Scrum is a Sprint, a time-box of one month or less during which a “Done”, useable, and potentially releasable product Increment is created. Sprints have consistent durations throughout a development effort.

Video lesson

Here we look at the product vision and release planning, including how an agile release plan is used. I take you through sprint planning and the application of velocity to control and forecast sprints.

Video lesson

We look at how agile schedule managent can be applied to PMBOK, and the use of the high-level product roadmap. You will learn how to perform detailed scheduling using sprints and how these are used for agile release planning.

Video lesson

I teach you the critical chain benefits and method of development. You will learn how to use critical chain buffers while contrast and comparing the critical chain method against the critical path technique.
