Training Overview:

Training will consist of three intensive training modules. Each module is delivered over two full consecutive days, addressing the planning, procurement and contract management phases of a public capital works project. Participants are required to complete all three modules.

This training is highly interactive and demands a strong commitment from participants. Participants will be required to complete multiple choice questionnaires in between lectures, take part in group exercises, and further engage in discussion on the topical areas during class time. In addition, participants will also be required to complete an assignment, between 800 to 1,000 words, outside the formal course time. Real-life case studies relating to course topics and participants’ working situations will also be included in the training. All training material and course guidance notes will be provided for participants. Further information can be found here.
