Planning your projects
(Back to top)Developing a work plan or timeline is an excellent way to achieve a successful project as it records the major milestones for the project and who is responsible for completing them.
Providing such information is a good way to show that your project is well planned and ready to go.
To assist you in this process, we have developed a basic sample project plan and work plan for you to use in the planning and implementation process
