Certification Programs
PLG > PROJECT FINANCE CERTIFICATION > The understanding of financial management is key to successful project execution. Successful project (and construction) organizations, like all businesses, must be able to track and report financial performance, including profitability, cash flows and efficiency. Key learning outcomes include project selection models, capital budgeting project valuation techniques, cash-flow forecasting and scenario analysis. MODULES > 1. Project Management Fundamentals > 2. Capital Budgeting for Project Managers > 3. Financial Forecasting and Evaluation for Project Managers
PLG > PROJECT MANAGEMENT & LEADERSHIP CERTIFICATION > Effective project and business leaders challenge existing processes and question the status quo. They recognize the need to rethink assumptions and evaluate issues objectively. Preconceived notions and biases favoring existing thinking limit our critical thinking ability and diminish our ability to make informed decisions. This program starts with the foundation of project management (such as critical path method, earned value analysis and project integration management) and transitions to higher-order concepts such as project team building, motivation and leadership. MODULES > 1. Project Management Fundamentals > 2. Change Management for Project Managers > 3. Project Team Building & Leadership
PLG > CONSTRUCTION PROJECT MANAGEMENT & LEADERSHIP CERTIFICATION > The objective of this series is to introduce key concepts about project leadership as they pertain to design and construction. The challenges for construction project managers are great as they try to optimize the triple constraints of cost, schedule and scope. These demands are financial, political, environmental, time-related, organizational, economic and technical. They stretch our project resources, our capacity to deliver and can thwart our potential. PLG seeks to provoke a higher order thinking about the effective management of complex projects in an increasingly demanding and competitive environment. MODULES > 1. Project Management Fundamentals > 2. Construction Project Management Methods > 3. Managing Complex Construction Projects
PLG > COST CONTROL CERTIFICATION > Successful project organizations, like all businesses, must be able to track and report financial performance, including profitability, cash flows and efficiency. Understanding where the costs are and how they are distributed, is key to deciding business strategy including which projects to bid, how much to bid and the breakdown between work directly performed and work subcontracted out. Our focus is on the integration of cost control methodologies within project management frameworks including forecasting, cost mitigation, risk management and strategic information management. MODULES > 1. Project Cost Fundamentals > 2. Strategic Information Management for Project Managers > 3. Cost Mitigation, Forecasting, Reporting & Management
PLG > CONTRACTS & CLAIMS MANAGEMENT CERTIFICATION > Contracts management is an integral part of project management. The foundation of successful and smoothly executed projects is a clear set of contracts that clearly and accurately reflect the scope of work. Contracts must provide for mechanisms which minimize ambiguity and communicate the work in a comprehensive manner. Innovative techniques for interest-based negotiations are studied in depth. MODULES > 1. Project Procurement & Supply Chain Management > 2. Change Management for Project Managers > 3. Proactive Claims Management & Disputes Resolution
PLG > DECISION MAKING & RISK MANAGEMENT CERTIFICATION
PLG > PROJECT NEGOTIATION CERTIFICATION
