Overview

This lab assignment gives you a chance to practice creating a WBS within MS Project or your chosen PM software tool. It is due at the end of Week Four.

Requirements

DO A WBS in MS Project or your chosen PM tool

Instructions

This lab assignment follows the construction example described in the MS Project Tutorial in your textbook, appendix B.

[NOTE: I am NOT asking you to work through the entire tutorial in Appendix B!!! The objective is for each student to show evidence of having selected, downloaded/installed (if necessary) a PM tool, and get your feet wet entering just the WBS into the tool. This is a very simple assignment and should take only a few minutes once you have selected and installed the PM software of your choice.] Please don't over-think it.

Your WBS should be created in your chosen PM tool for the tasks listed below Submit your document to the instructor via Canvas as an image file (.jpg, .pdf, .gif)
