The new AGC Project Manager Development Program (PMDP) consists of five 16-hour courses covering the essential skills for early-career project managers and those looking to make the move into project management. PMDP, released in October 2008, is offered nationwide through select AGC chapters, individual construction firms and educational institutions.
The Constructors Association of Western Pennsylvania and the Master Builders Association of Western Pennsylvania have partnered with AGC of America to offer all five modules of the PMDP in early 2009.
The material presented in the five modules of the curriculum, along with the activities and the shared experiences of participants in the course, will help participants learn the essential skills required of all project managers.
The five essential skills covered in the PMDP are:
Module 1: Estimating and Job Costing— January 15-16
Module 2: Contract Administration— February 5-6
Module 3: Project Administration— March 18-19
Module 4: Risk Management— April 9-10
Module 5: Leadership— April 30-May 1
The AGC PMDP is intended to provide:
• A uniform body of knowledge for member organizations to increase the professionalism of
construction project management
• A mechanism to build institutional stability within a company regarding the fundamentals of
project management
• Cost-effective and accessible training for construction project managers
• Professional development opportunities to enhance existing training offerings
Registration is now open for this exciting series of programs.
