The Training Course:
The purpose of this course is to upskill and improve candidates' ability to work more efficiently and to report schedule and cost information accurately in a project management environment. Candidates will understand Earned Value terminology, calculations, and the importance of communication in a project team.
The course material does not mandate any hardware or software. Candidates use MSOffice to practice course examples.
What the course cover
This accredited course consists of (190 PowerPoint slides) demonstrating the latest Best Practice Project Controls based on Earned Value Management (EVM) principles.
Topics include project setup, planning, scheduling, and cost control, complete with best practice tracking and control techniques.
The course content applies to small and large projects. A case study is conducted where Project Controls are applied to simple, small projects, major multi-discipline complex capital projects, as well as managing Project Controls on multiple small projects.
The course demonstrates typical examples of detailed and executive-level progress, performance and status reports.
This course is aligned with the Standards and Guidelines as described by PMBOK, PRINCE2, ECSA, SACPCMP, EVM EIA 748, CPM, AACEI, DCMA (USA).
Do I Qualify?
To assume learning to be in place, learners accessing this course will have demonstrated competence in computer literacy, numeracy, literacy, and communication at NQF Level 4, or equivalent (Matric - Grade 12).
Experience in Project Management and Controls or a Construction Site environment would be to the learner's advantage.
Do I Need to Study Before?
No, no pre-course study is required. However, it is expected that the candidate completes the homework after each class (virtual classes or classroom environment).
What is Included in this Training Course?

What is the monetary value of the work PLANNED?
What is the monetary value of the work EARNED?
What is the ACTUAL Cost (SPENT) for the work accomplished?
