Want to know the absolute earliest your project can finish? That's what the Forward Pass is for!

In this focused episode, we decode the crucial first step of the Critical Path Method (CPM). Using a step-by-step example, we show you how to move through a project's network diagram to calculate:

• Early Start (ES): When each task can realistically begin.
• Early Finish (EF): The soonest each task can wrap up.

Mastering this calculation is essential for setting your project duration and preparing to identify the Critical Path. Tune in for a quick, practical lesson that will instantly sharpen your scheduling skills.
