Course Brief

Management is a key feature of a project from conception, through design and
construction stages, into end-user and end-of-life cycles. Throughout this process,
a project manager is called upon to manage stakeholders, facilitate communication
and information sharing, and support different groups to ensure they are working to
schedule, budget and contract.


Project managers will need to have sound knowledge, skills and competencies to
manage all aspects of a complex construction project. This role may be fulfilled by a
client representative or an external appointment.


The aim of this unit is to explore theories and practices relating to project
management, the project manager role and managing stakeholders throughout the
project process.


Topics covered in this unit include: project management as a discipline and suitability
for a range of construction industry activities; project stakeholder types and their
management; project manager roles and responsibilities; project management plans.


On completion of this unit, students will be able to apply the theories and practices
of project management to real-world scenarios. In doing so, they will develop
transferable skills as well as equipping themselves with industry-standard tools to
work as effective members of a project management team.
