“I received PRISM and Power BI training, and a refresher course in Primavera P6 from Allan Crow at Allied Projects. I can commend him for his knowledge in Project Controls systems and Project Controls in general.

When Allan told me he was developing a project controls training course I jumped at the chance to take part. Having worked with Allan in a previous role I knew he was very knowledgeable in project management and was committed to implementing effective project controls standards across all projects. The course was broken down into concise elements and Allan's delivery was clear and logical. It was interactive with lots of questions, in-depth discussions and cups of tea along the way. I've worked in cost control for 10+ years and would recommend this course to anyone who works or has an interest in project management, be it a beginner or professional. I'm looking forward to using my updated skills in my new role!

Overview

Over the course of your career in the delivery of projects, you may find yourself working for both the Owner and the Contractor. Each side manages project delivery differently – the Owner manages at the higher level of detail while the Contractor manages at the lower level of detail.

This course delivers practical training in how to confidently establish, set-up and manage the delivery of projects, irrespective of whether you find yourself working for the Owner or the Contractor.

Best suited for the discerning project manager, engineering leads, estimators, planners and schedulers, cost controllers, procurement and contracts, and construction leaders who would like to learn how successful project delivery comes together.

Skill level

This training course is aimed at individuals in the engineering and construction fields, who have a strong background in project delivery with an intermediate knowledge level of project controls.
