Can someone help provide ideas, links and resources where I can find a really good spreadsheet or Gantt Chart for professional development?

So, I've been tasked by my boss on establishing a Gantt Chart for a personal/career development progress tracker or model for one of our new captains who just in-processed into our Branch and PCA'd from main base. Anyone have an idea how I can format it for the next two years? I need some ideas on formatting and spreadsheet templates. It has been racking my brain on how I can develop a good baseline for a two-year officer project development. Thanks in advance!

There may be more sophisticated programs out there, but MS Excel should have everything you need to get the job done. There are some great tutorials on YouTube.

When you need more, tell !e, I'll try to help you find it...also, elaborate, so far as you can, in concrete terms...what AFSC is he at least generally, what coirsework is he to do, what !milestones is he to achieve, and how fast for each...look up!also something called PERT/CPM, CPM is critical path !method, it's a scheduling approach in quantitative mgmt, used for construction projects, that also finds use in such HR related efforts, if you want !e to explain, I can trust !ez there are numerous Wikipedia, freeware, and shareware pages devoted to software for it, as well as on the Source forge open source site, I'm here if you need help, give me your thoughts, elaborate so far as feasible, I'm here if you want help, OK?

Read this, there are others, though that one is decent, I saw the Gsmtt chart format, I have a basic idea, read this for a comparison, elaborate, as I'd said, on AFSzc, coirsework, objectives, milspestones, how long for each level of!progress, etc, so far as youre able, OK?

Critical path method - Wikipedia

The critical path method (CPM), or critical path analysis (CPA), is an algorithm for scheduling a set of project activities.[1] It is commonly used in conjunction with the program evaluation and review technique (PERT).
