Construction Project Management for Non-Specialists

Project Management|2 days|Classroom or live online

Construction Project Management for Non-Specialists is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through scheduling and earned value management without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because most project failure is visible in the schedule long before it is admitted in the status report, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with resource planning, change control and project initiation in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

Review resource planning and say plainly whether it is working, measured against the PMBOK guide
Spot where change control is failing before it becomes a finding
Explain project initiation to someone who does not do the work
Take ownership of stakeholder communication rather than escalating it
