Presentation: The Citizen Scientist’s Guide to EVM: Bringing Clarity to Project Performance

Abstract: You don’t need to be a data analyst to harness the power of Earned Value Management (EVM).  This session empowers the citizen scientist – the curious, hands-on project contributor- with a practical and approachable way to implement and use EVM.  Learn how to track progress using simple inputs (scope, schedule, and budget), and applying key performance insight to flag issues early for corrective action, and forecast project costs and finish date.
