A Project Timeline is a useful tool in project management to document milestones, deadlines and other significant dates and events during a project. As portions of a project are completed, they can be noted on the timeline, providing a helpful visual on the project’s progress.

Project Timelines are usually laid out as a horizontal bar with notations for relevant dates (days, weeks, months, or years) along the bar. Each task within the project is noted at the point of completion or proposed completion. The furthest end of the bar is the completion of the project. This tool provides managers and team members with a clear visual representation of where the project stands at any moment compared as compared to the completion date.

Project Timeline tools and templates include any kind of charting software or spreadsheet, or simply a long, horizontal paper which can be drawn on and updated. Get started with our Project Timeline template. 

How to use it: 

1. Review the template and insert your program’s basic information. 
2. List your project title and subsequent tasks. 
3. Complete the rest of the template accordingly. 
4. Periodically review the progress made based on the timeline. 
5. Create an action plan for improvements.
