About Course
This module equips learners with the critical tools and techniques needed to plan, schedule, and control construction projects effectively. You will explore how to break down complex construction activities into manageable components using Work Breakdown Structures (WBS), develop realistic project timelines with scheduling methods like Critical Path Method (CPM) and PERT, and apply earned value analysis to track performance against budget and schedule. The module also introduces Lean Construction principles and the Last Planner System to improve efficiency, reduce waste, and enhance collaboration on-site. By the end, you will be able to design integrated project schedules, proactively manage delays, and maintain control over time and cost across the project lifecycle.
