Registration begins for Gould Const. Inst./Wentworth Partnership
November 19, 2007 - Construction Design & Engineering
How can you make training at the Gould Construction Institute (GCI) any better?
Add a partnership with Wentworth Institute of Technology.
GCI has started a partnership with Wentworth Institute of Technology (WIT) to develop and provide a course entitled, Introduction to Construction Management. This partnership is an important milestone in Gould's ongoing commitment to providing both training and continuing education for anyone who wants to climb the construction ladder, from the apprenticeship level to the very top of the company.
The course will allow companies who have field employees, capable of becoming leaders in the office, to transition into management positions. The course will provide 90 hours of instruction, equating to 9 continuing education units (CEUs) from WIT, in the following areas: Leadership and communication, construction law, construction documents, construction contracts, introduction to estimating, cost awareness & resource control, construction planning, scheduling, quality control, negotiations, safety, crisis management and ethics.
The course starts January 16 at the GCI training room, 200 Wheeler Rd., Burlington.
