    The Construction PM Skills You Will Build

    Contracts, Stakeholders and Governance

    PMI-CP training helps you build construction contract, stakeholder, scope and governance knowledge alongside real exam readiness. By the end of the program, you can apply project management across the full construction lifecycle and sit the exam with confidence.

    Evaluate Contract Types and Delivery Methods

    The skills covered in PMI-CP training start with construction contracts. You will assess lump sum, cost-plus, GMP and unit-price contracts and delivery methods such as design-build, CM at risk and EPC, and advise on risk allocation. Contracts Management is the largest domain at 50% of the exam.

    Administer Contracts, Variations and Claims

    Manage payment applications, change and variation orders, insurance and bonds, and handle delay, disruption and differing-site-condition claims through negotiation, mediation, adjudication or arbitration, all the way to contract closeout.

    Engage Owners, Communities and Regulators

    Identify and analyze stakeholders, plan engagement, manage owner and client relationships, address community impacts, and coordinate permitting and inspections with regulatory authorities. Stakeholder Engagement is 30% of the exam.

    Set Project Strategy and Control Scope

    Develop the project execution plan, baseline scope and the work breakdown structure, run change control, and connect delivery to owner objectives across the Strategy and Scope Management domain.

    Control Schedule, Budget and Project Risk

    Build and track the construction master schedule with critical path method, manage cost with earned value, and identify, assess and respond to project risks and quality issues on live construction projects.

    Govern Projects and Pass the PMI-CP Exam

    Establish governance frameworks, reporting and document control, and prepare for the 120-question, closed-book, 230-minute exam aligned to the current PMI-CP Examination Content Outline.
