And that refers to tracking your construction progress, comparing the actual outcome to the predicted outcomes that you have in your plans, and analyzing the impact that you get in the field with the one that you have in the plans. And project time management, focusing on three processes or phases, which is the planning phase, and something very important, which is the tracking and control of the plants. So you want to provide the construction project with the plan and the schedule, that is essential and important to be able to manage your time efficiently and effectively. So let's start by what is planning and scheduling? If you want to think about from a bigger picture, planning and scheduling, it's all about dealing with the project time management. For today module, we will be focusing on introduction to construction of project planning. Summarize the work breakdown structure (WBS) and estimate the construction activity duration View Syllabus Detail the principles and application of sustainability development in construction industry Explain the fundamental principles to establish Environment, Health and Safety in the construction industry Learn about construction management, including an understanding of the construction industry, the role of a project manager, construction contract types, and project delivery methods The course concludes with Professor Odeh discussing the importance of project planning and scheduling and an opportunity to develop a Work Breakdown Structure.īy the end of this course, you will be able to: Technological advances, such as Building Information Modeling (BIM), will be introduced with real world examples of the uses of BIM during the Lifecycle of the Project.

Professor Odeh teaches learners about the fundamentals of the Project Development Cycle while guest lecturers discuss Lean Project Delivery method and Lean Design Behaviors. There are 10 modules that allow learners to become knowledgeable of construction management within the dynamic construction industry. Columbia University professor, Ibrahim Odeh, along with industry experts join together to provide a comprehensive overview of the construction industry.

Construction Project Management introduces learners to Project Initiation and Planning.
