    What You Will Master in This Programme

    Skills Mapped to the Four PMI-CP Domains

    This PMI-CP training builds the construction project management skills the exam and real projects demand. By the end, you can manage contracts, engage stakeholders, control scope and risk, and govern delivery across the full construction lifecycle.

    Contract Types and Delivery Methods

    Skills covered in the PMI-CP start with the exam's largest domain: you will learn to evaluate contract types (lump sum, cost-plus, GMP, target cost) and delivery methods (design-bid-build, design-build, EPC, IPD), and advise on risk allocation for each construction project.

    Contract Administration and Subcontracts

    Administer construction contracts end to end: interpret terms, manage notices, payment applications and retainage, and control subcontract and supplier agreements so obligations and performance stay on track.

    Variations, Claims and Dispute Management

    Identify, document and evaluate scope changes and variation orders, and manage claims for delay, disruption and differing site conditions through negotiation, mediation, adjudication and arbitration.

    Stakeholder and Owner Engagement

    Identify, analyse and engage owners, designers, contractors, regulators and communities, and run the communications that keep complex construction projects aligned across their lifecycle.

    Strategy, Scope, Schedule and Risk Control

    Define the project execution plan and scope baseline, then manage schedule, budget, risk and quality using critical path and earned value techniques to keep delivery on target.

    Project Governance and Reporting

    Establish governance frameworks, decision rights and reporting, run performance reviews and audits, and maintain document control, compliance and ethical conduct across the project.
