The video tutorial guides students through practicing skills learned in the course by performing tasks related to project management. It covers viewing and filtering tasks on the critical path, taking a snapshot of the project, assigning it to a baseline, and clearing the baseline. The tutorial provides step-by-step instructions for each task, emphasizing the importance of the critical path in project management.

What is the significance of tasks on the critical path in a project?

• They are tasks that can be delayed without affecting the project.

• They are tasks that have no impact on the project timeline.

How can you filter tasks to only show those on the critical path?

• By applying the 'Optional Tasks' filter.

• By selecting the 'All Tasks' filter.

• By choosing the 'Critical Filter' option.

• By using the 'Non-Critical Filter' option.

What is the first step in taking a snapshot of the project?

• Jump to the Gantt chart format.

• Set a baseline in the schedule group.

• Clear all existing baselines.

• Filter tasks by completion status.

Where does the baseline appear once it is set in the project?

• As a grey bar underneath the task bars.

• As a red line across the task bars.

• As a green dot next to the task bars.

• As a blue bar above the task bars.

What is the final step in clearing a baseline?

• Rename the baseline and save changes.

• Delete the baseline from the list.

• Choose the correct baseline and click 'OK'.

• Select the baseline and click 'Apply'.
