Description

Whether you're working on a project with a team or taking on a solo gig, you'll want a good idea of what it'll take to complete that thing. The best way to get a sense for the level of effort of a project or task is to create an estimate. Here's the thing: it's not that difficult to do!

You've got to remember that estimates are never perfect—but some tactics can certainly improve your aim. Find out what goes into a good project estimate and how to eliminate the guesswork.

In this class, you’ll learn how to:

Make the case for sound estimates
Determine whether a project is worth taking on
Evaluate your project or task from all angles
Engage your team and stakeholders in an estimating process that works
Break your project down into its smallest parts for easier—and more accurate—estimation
Explore methods of estimation for typical project types, and even personal projects
