Engineering Project Management

Training Course Overview

Engineering Project Management is an essential process, critical to the successful outcome of every engineering project. While all projects need to be managed, none are more reliant on effective management than engineering projects. This is due to the typical size and complexity of engineering projects which, if not managed properly, can result in disastrous consequences for not only the project organization and client, but also for the environment, local community, and all other project stakeholders.

Knowing how to manage engineering projects effectively and efficiently is a skill that requires an in-depth knowledge of all the factors and facets that affect these projects. This training course is specifically designed to cover the core fundamentals of Engineering Project Management, from project planning and initiation, through to project control, risk management and stakeholder engagement.
