Learn to choose meaningful project KPIs, prepare clear status reports and dashboards, apply RAG ratings consistently, use earned value indicators and tailor updates to each stakeholder group.
The Project Reporting and KPI Tracking course in Doha, Qatar helps project professionals turn project data into reports that people actually read and act on. Participants learn how to select key performance indicators that reflect schedule, cost, quality, safety and benefits, how to set targets and thresholds, and how to collect reliable data. The course covers weekly and monthly status reports, executive summaries and dashboards, as well as consistent RAG (red, amber, green) rating rules that avoid optimistic or confusing reporting.
Sessions combine short explanations with hands-on work. Learners redesign a sample status report, build a simple KPI dashboard in Microsoft Excel or Power BI, and interpret earned value indicators like CPI and SPI alongside milestone and issue data. They also practice presenting bad news clearly and adjusting the level of detail for sponsors, steering committees and project teams.
