While you are waiting for a future employer to give you a call go the the PowerProject website and down load a 14 day trial version of the software and go through the tutorial.
PowerProject is the most commonly used software in the UK construction industry.
The only warning I would give is that - in my opinion - you cannot plan a project if you do not know how to build it.
The best you can aspire to is a programme scheduler who works the software to interpret a method statement - and even then you will have to know what it all means.
