Advanced CPM Scheduling
Like Duolingo, but for Advanced CPM Scheduling. Tomo turns the whole topic into a game you play five minutes a day, until it actually sticks.
For the part of you with thirty open tabs that never became anything.
18 levels across 3 sections, about 36 minutes end to end, roughly 7 days at five minutes a day. It moves through Complex Logic and Constraint Modeling; Resource Dynamics and Optimization; and Risk, Forensics, and Claims.

Key ideas in Advanced CPM Scheduling
- SS and FF relationships allow activities to overlap
- Lags are invisible logic connectors
- Standard float calculations fail on internal duration
- Schedule auditors flag heavy use of lags
- Delay in successor start creates new sub-path
- Modeling wait times as distinct activities ensures transparency
- Identifying how non-FS relationships create hidden bottlenecks
- Evaluating the auditability of lags versus discrete activities
- Float is calculated based on the calendar of the successor activity
- Total Float can be manipulated by constraints
- Non-FS relationships create hidden bottlenecks
- Crossing from restrictive to expansive calendars inflates float
- Longest Path method ignores float values
- Auditability of lags versus discrete activities
- Distinguishing between Total Float and Longest Path
- Retained Logic respects the original network ties
You've tried the other tabs
Thirty open tabs. Four facts you actually kept.
You watched. You nodded. By Sunday it was gone.
One answer, then back to scrolling.
Eight weeks. You meant to finish. You didn't.
Tomo gives Advanced CPM Scheduling the Duolingo treatment: levels, streaks, and quick quizzes that test what you just learned. That game loop is what the tabs above never had, so it's the one you actually finish.
Here's what playing it feels like
A real question from this course. Take your best guess.
Imagine you need to account for a 7-day concrete drying period. If you use a 'Lag' instead of a distinct activity, what is the primary limitation you'll face in your software?
