As the author of the “Ask the Teacher” column published monthly by the Microsoft Project Association (MPA), we have had the opportunity to answer questions posed by students in classes as well as from the readers of this column.

Below are articles that have been published over the last several years. This page will be updated monthly with the new article of the month as well as other tips and tricks that might be helpful to Microsoft Project users at all levels of experience.

We hope that you will return to this page frequently and that these articles will help you with your questions about getting more from MS Project and MS Project Server.

We also hope that we will hear from you with your questions to “Ask the Teacher”. Please send your questions using the form on the “Contact Us” page of this website. We hope to be hearing from you soon.

I don't consider myself an expert but have been told I am at MS Project. However, if I were to recognize I am an expert by my peers and coworkers it's because of your great techniques and items that I learn from you and pretty much use daily once I pluck them from your articles. A sincere "thanks" for the expert advice and don't stop submitting because you are allowing me to perform very well in my job!"
