The Art of Project Management: Making it Work (Course 3)
In response to COVID-19 public health advisory, Courses 2-4 have been pushed back a month and moved online. Please stay tuned for further program information.
Making it Work (in the day-to-day) is the third course of the 4-part Project Management Series tailored to reflect the deep interdisciplinary collaboration that distinguishes design and construction practice in our region.
With the contract as your guide and the secret sauce in your grasp (relationships + communication + collaboration), course 3 will explore some critical know-how and know-why to get a project done. Understand design and construction scheduling and get a better grasp on budgets, forecasting profitability, and the financial motivations of everyone involved. Practice collaboration-building methodologies of target value design and pull scheduling. Learn from your peers and a variety of disciplines about how they get projects done.
Intended Audience
The series has been designed sequentially for cohort-based learning for architects, engineers and contractors at every table. Registrants should consider participating in all four classes (March-June) for optimal benefit. Visit this page to learn more about the full series and registration costs.
