Transforming Construction Management in Tanzania with Successful MS Project 2024 Training
Managers and Engineers from major institutions in Tanzania; mainly Zanzibar Housing Corporation and Tanzania Buildings Agency; have just completed a powerful 4-day professional training on Construction Planning & Scheduling Using Microsoft Project 2024, delivered by Nziza Global Tanzania in Morogoro from October 7–10, 2025. Delivered in a hybrid format, this ERB-accredited program equipped participants with the tools, techniques, and confidence to drive real improvements in project management.
Why This Training Mattered
In today’s rapidly evolving construction industry, the ability to deliver projects on time, manage resources efficiently, and control costs has become more critical than ever. With increasing client expectations, tighter budgets, and complex stakeholder environments, construction professionals must be equipped with tools and techniques that go beyond traditional project management approaches. This training addressed that very need. Far from being a theoretical workshop, it was a practical, hands-on program where participants actively engaged in real-world project scenarios. Using Microsoft Project, one of the industry’s most powerful planning tools, attendees learned how to apply global best practices to the Tanzanian construction context — helping them tackle everyday challenges head-on. During the training, they learned how to: 🔧 Build fully cost-loaded Critical Path Method (CPM) schedules 📊 Create and manage Gantt charts, allocate resources, and track project delays 📈 Communicate schedules and progress clearly to clients, consultants, and team members 🎓 Earn 26 ERB-accredited PDUs and receive a recognized industry certificate from Nziza Global
Building Capacity Among Tanzania’s Construction Leaders
This training brought together a dynamic and diverse group of professionals from both the public and private sectors. Among the attendees were Construction Managers, Site Engineers, Project Managers, Supervisors, Quantity Surveyors, Planning Engineers, as well as Government Officials and Executives. These individuals hold critical roles in Tanzania’s ongoing infrastructure and development efforts, and their participation underscored the importance of equipping teams with modern, globally recognized project management tools. By the end of the training, each participant walked away with practical skills and strategies to better plan, execute, and monitor construction projects; helping drive improved efficiency, accountability, and delivery across their respective organizations.
Real Learning, Real Impact
Many came in with limited experience using Microsoft Project, but left with the confidence to create, manage, and present schedules that meet professional standards. The skills gained; like resource leveling, delay tracking, and critical path analysis; are already being put to use in their entities to improve construction project planning and execution.
