The Construction Delay Analysis Edge

Course overview

Extension of time (EOT) is becoming a common practice in a lot of building projects. EOT can occasionally be a contentious issue for clients, thus those interacting with them must be astute, quick, self-assured, and convincing.

This training will be beneficial to project managers who are keen to develop and hone their management abilities. But the advantages extend beyond project managers to other related fields as well.

Understanding EOT delays and conducting cause-and-effect analyses to determine the type of delay and the rightful owner of the EOT claim are the goals of this course.

The objective of this course is to enhance the job efficiency and competency of professionals involved in construction projects, such as project managers, planning engineers, contract administrators, construction managers, technical managers, and other related occupations.

What makes this course, the “Construction Delay Analysis Masterclass,” unique from the others? The fundamental issue with the majority of courses that teach related subjects to those covered in this course is that they place more of an emphasis on “studying” than on allowing students to apply the knowledge and abilities they have acquired.

This course differs from others since it offers the opportunity to work on actual claims in a practical setting. This Training Bee training course will increase your proficiency by pushing your perspective and method of thinking about claims, so empowering you to test your thinking capacities.
