Microsoft Project 2013 Quick Reference Card Pack Download

Due to the popularity of our 2010 quick reference cards (we had over 8000 downloads) we have created a set of quick reference cards for Microsoft Project 2013!

The Quick Reference Cards explain the common elements of the Microsoft Project 2013 interface including: an itemized listing of the Project 2013 ribbon commands, an extensive list of the Microsoft Project 2013 keyboard shortcuts, and an explanation of the variables that affect resource assignments in Microsoft Project such as Duration, Work, Assignment Units, and Task Types.  There are also cards on Dependencies, Constraints, and the AutoLink tasks feature.  There is also a card on the Report ribbon, new to 2013.   The Microsoft Project 2013 Quick Reference Cards are available for download free of charge.  I would recommend that every Project Manager using Microsoft Project 2013 in the world has a copy of these cards!     The 13 Microsoft Project 2010 Quick Reference Cards:
