Sir Ganttalot helps you prepare for the PMP exam by explaining Earned Value Management. This is a three part lesson. Part 1 covers basic concepts, i.e. how to derive PV (Planned Value), EV (Earned Value) and AC Actual Cost. (These terms are also known as BCWS, BCWP and ACWP respectively.) Part 2 shows how to apply these items to calculate variances (SV – Schedule Variance, CV – Cost Variance, SPI – Schedule Performance Index, CPI – Cost Performance Index). Part 3 explains how Earned Value Management is used to forecast project performance by calculating EAC – Estimate at Completion, ETC – Estimate to Complete, VAC – Variance at Completion, and TCPI – To Complete Performance Index.

Sir Ganttalot helps you prepare for the PMP exam by explaining Three-Point Estimating. The video explains how to derive a Mean Estimate, how to calculate Standard Deviation (Sigma), and how to calculate Variance. In all cases both Triangular and PERT techniques are addressed. A second, related, video then shows how to apply Sigma values to calculate Confidence Levels for Estimates

Sir Ganttalot helps you prepare for the PMP exam by explaining how to apply Standard Deviation (Sigma) values to calculate Confidence Levels for Estimates. A related video explains how Mean Estimates and Standard Deviation are derived in the first place, using Triangular and PERT techniques.
Sir Ganttalot helps you prepare for the PMP exam by explaining Critical Path and Float/Slack analysis. This is a two part lesson. Part 1 covers a quick and easy “eyeballing” method to identify the Critical Path in a project network and to determine the float/slack for non-critical tasks. Part 2 explores in detail the forward/backward pass approach.
