In this course, we will thoroughly explore the management of field construction projects, focusing on essential techniques for controlling various aspects of the construction process. Participants will learn strategies to effectively manage costs, time, resources, and project finances, ensuring that projects are completed efficiently and within budget. Emphasis will be placed on practical and applied procedures that have been demonstrated to be effective in real-world scenarios.
Beyond project-specific management, a strong background in general construction industry knowledge is crucial for successful project oversight. This interactive online course is designed to familiarize them with fundamental construction practices, providing participants with a solid foundation in the industry's key concepts.
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Explain how time control during the design stage minimizes construction time while maintaining quality, safety, and cost.
- Identify why a successful project requires management of multiple components, including time, quality, cost, and safety.
- Describe the phases of the Critical Path Method and how it is used to manage projects while considering safety, quality, cost, and schedule.
- Discuss how construction projects are individually unique and tailored to be well-suited for their environment and function.
