PROJECT MANAGEMENT IN

CONSTRUCTION ONLINE
COURSE DESCRIPTION
Project managers in the Philippines construction industry may have the experience to undertake the most complicated engineering
projects for our developing local economy, but the impending challenge of integration with neighboring economies carry with it
huge opportunities as well as huge demands for construction project managers in terms of project delivery at the right time and
the right cost.

Filipino construction managers will benefit from the latest knowledge, skills, tools and techniques of the Project Management

than three decades.

The Project Management in Construction Online is a comprehensive course on the Project Management framework of the Project
Management Institute (PMI)® and shall consist of lectures, workshops and group activities based on an actual construction project
to facilitate a thorough understanding of the PMBOK® Guide as the foundational knowledge resource for understanding projects,
with discussions of considerations and applications of fundamental project-management knowledge in the context of construction
projects.
