Course Information

Learn how to get the most out of Deltek Cobra in just 1 day.

Your organization has a basic integrated earned value system in place, and you’re key to keeping that running. But as the organization starts to see the benefits from Cobra reporting, leaders start asking for more from the tools. Are you ready? This course will help you step up into the role of Cobra expert for your team!

Continuing on from our Deltek Cobra Fundamentals training course, our Deltek Cobra Advanced training class focuses on less common, but more complex tasks that Cobra administrators frequently need to tackle. You’ll learn how to create sophisticated, timely and accurate reports to support project delivery across the business.

By the end of the course, you’ll have more confidence in your ability to respond to the organization’s changing needs, with greater knowledge of what can (and cannot) be done with Deltek’s Cobra system.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Take full advantage of the many advanced features of Deltek Cobra
  • Quickly assess whether a management request is feasible
  • Execute any feasible data request quickly and accurately
  • Modify or change the system data and configurations as the process is updated and improved

Our course materials have been written by experienced consultants with hands-on expertise in implementing and running Deltek Cobra as part of a complete earned value management system (EVMS). Our consultants bring their professional experience to the course, sharing what they know and how they did the job, so you can learn both the theory and the practice.

We make sure that the data used in your practical learning exercises accurately reflects common situations in real projects to give you as close to a ‘real’ experience of the tool as possible in a classroom setting.
