Just looking for something to get me started. Thanks

I don't know what's being offered in your area, but be careful that
you don't get a "pushbutton" class where the instructor knows nothing
about scheduling or Project Management and has taught themselves MS
Project out of a book. You'll end up with a set of misconceptions
about Project and scheduling which you'll then get to gradually
unlearn as you get better at scheduling. Find someone who knows
something about scheduling, i.e. Critical Path Method scheduling, and
who's actually used the software to plan something bigger than
preparing for class!

Hope this helps in your world.
