The Ultimate Guide To Master Project Management

Introduction

The construction industry e ects to economic development to a country is


critically signi cant.

A strategic plan are set through various projects and initiatives to achieve the
overall objectives structured by the government.

As a result private businesses and investment follow the trail to take


advantage of the construction boom created by economic development
projects.

In view of the above, the construction industry remains a huge driver of


economic progress.

The primary reason construction industry and engineering profession are


direct benefactors.

Consequently, professionals who are prepared and ready to face these once
in a lifetime career opportunity will be rewarded greatly and the others as
well – during the construction boom.

Therefore, a project management knowledge and skills speci c in the


construction projects is the most valuable, competitive di erentiation if you
want to succeed in your eld.

And these keep us motivated at 3Web Project with our commitment to do


what we should do. And this aim to help you achieve your career and
personal goals faster and easier than you ever thought possible.

The Ultimate Guide To Master Project Management

3Web Project is o ering training designed to facilitate employment transition


for professionals whether seeking to work in the national, or international
environment, and abroad.

With our experience both in the Philippines and in the Middle East countries
led us to discover  the"  big gaps"  between working in local and abroad
particularly in the construction industry.

It is these gaps that 3Web Project wants to ll in so that professionals in their


respective engineering eld or in the construction industry will be able to
develop a professional advantage.

Doing nothing can negatively impact the career progression of construction


and engineering professionals; and also it's the primary reason of low salary
o ers because of stagnant career especially when applying for local jobs and
abroad, if this knowledge and skills gap remain unlearned.

You don't need to experiment with ten (10) more years of experience in your
eld anymore guring out your perfect career; whereas 3Web Project have
articulated already through the recommended career path for you to succeed
as discuss in this Ultimate Guide.

This free digital copy of “The Ultimate Guide to Master Project Management:
Construction and Engineering Projects” was based from our experience of
project management training in the past years and for you to get the
maximum bene ts of training.

How you can take advantage of career opportunities using project


management skills speci c in construction and engineering projects?

https://www.3webproject.com/                             page 3
The Ultimate Guide To Master Project Management

We break it down to illustrate for your self-examination to determine if you


got what it takes to reach your professional goals and become successful.

So let’s begin…

Your Career Goals and Motivation

You can achieve success in project management if you are driven with a
career goals and objectives – but not when you treat your profession as a
normal job.

Every time you have accomplished something each year that get you closer
to your career goals for example (your short term goal) for the sole purpose
to achieve a higher career goals (long term goal), then it can be achieve
easier.

No matter the obstacles that comes your way, it does not matter because
you understand well that you need to be resolve to surmount immediate
career challenges.

So you need to ask yourself, your “WHY”?

Why do you want to succeed in your eld?

If you can answer this million dollar question in a blink of an eye, then you
will most likely to succeed; if not, surely you won’t.

But there’s hope as you continue reading this ultimate training guide…

https://www.3webproject.com/                               page 4
The Ultimate Guide To Master Project Management

What’s Not

This training will not work if you don’t have any related experience in
construction and project management. Then jump into classroom training
specially if your age is 22-27 years old (development stage 0-5 years of
experience). And you expect after the classroom training or online training
you will signi cantly know it all or worst to become a project manager.

It will not work that way.

Being competent in project management takes years of experience, time,


e ort, hard work, dedication, and a formal training combined strategically to
t your professional needs.

A two (2) years’ experience engineer can’t become a competent project


manager or a project engineer with that short period of time–even when you
completed all 3Web Project training.

Or a professional with 5 years’ experience can become expert in project


management even you completed the project managers course and Advance
Master Certi cate.

Again it requires experienced in your engineering eld, exposure to


construction project coupled with your project management skills. However,
the knowledge and skills you will learn while taking the formal training at
your development stage especially for young professionals is de nitely an
“unfair advantage”.

The Ultimate Guide To Master Project Management

Which One is Better–Online or Classroom?


Online Training

Obviously, the online format is not that popular compared to the classroom
format. However, in terms of knowledge retention, we have proven the
online is far more e ective than the classroom training. Why? For two
reasons:

  irstly, due to longer duration of training, usually 3-7 weeks of study on


F
the video lessons.
 Secondly, the Course Assessment is the key wherein trainees are
required to take multiple choice and objective type exam.
For the above reasons, trainee performance in the course assessment ranges
from “pro cient to highly pro cient”. This provide satisfaction on trainee’s
investment in professional development and con dence in project
management.

So professionals who are in their career development stage, with experience


of between 0-5 years of experience, the Online training format is highly
recommended.

But NOT recommended to take the 2-Day classroom directly.

If you are in mid-career stage 6-10 years of experience and above, you have
the options to take either the Online or the Classroom at your convenience.

Here are the training course you can take through the ONLINE format – from
development stage to management stage:

The Ultimate Guide To Master Project Management

The exception:

The only exception to this rule to take the 2-Day Classroom training directly is
for trainees whose aim is to learn the advance knowledge and skills in project
management as a professional advantage and for career enhancement. And
you need to con rm this statement before taking the 2-Day Classroom if you
fall in the category of development stage (0-5 years of experience) only.

Here are the training course you can take through the 2-Day Classroom:

The Ultimate Guide To Master Project Management

Why the Course Assessment


The Course assessment is only administered for the Online training format
due to longer duration (3-7weeks). And this is the advantage of taking the
Online format, where trainees can evaluate their performance and
knowledge retention eventually gain con dence on the project management
and construction.

That’s why it should be the training path to take whatever your career stage
particularly those with no experience in construction industry and young
professionals as explained in the succeeding guide.

2-Day Classroom Training

If you have substantial related experience of six (6) years and above in
construction and engineering projects, whether with an owner developer,
design consultant, contractor, and related engineering allied services then,
the 2-Day Classroom Training will best t your training needs.

In the same manner those who are already occupying a senior position such
as Project Manager, Construction Manager, Project In-charge, Project
Engineer, Project Coordinator, Site Engineer, Design Engineer, etc. the project
management skills, standards, best practice, and current trends you will
about to learn is all you need to blend with your valuable experience.

Not to mention of the formal training certi cate as evidence required by


employer and project stakeholders.

Due to the nature of the 2-Day fast-track classroom training, this is NOT
recommended for those with minimal experience in construction projects or
those in their career development stage (0-5 years of experience).

Why training Certi cate are important for professionals and what are the
immediate bene ts?
 You need a training certi cate as a skill and quali cation requirements
when applying for a job and to distinguish yourself from the rest in your
profession.
 In addition, you need a training certi cate to attach with your cv which is
related to the position you’re applying or during approval to join an
ongoing project.
 To demonstrate to employers and project stakeholders your skills and
competency in project management.
 Your certi cate serve as evidence of your formal training in project
management that ful l quali cations and competency requirements.
 Project management is one of the top quali cation you can have in your
repertoire for professionals in construction and engineering eld.

https://www.3webproject.com/                                        page 14
The Ultimate Guide To Master Project Management

Why training Certi cate are important for organizations?


 Training certi cates are required by company from key project sta and
this certi cates to be attached in technical documents during tender.
 Employees who demonstrate transferable knowledge and skills acquired
through training and be able to apply it in running projects, will likely
ensure longer employability than those who does not.
 Get promoted faster in exchange of greater responsibility because of the
current trends and in-demand skills in project management.
 To comply with regulatory and government authority to evaluate and
approved quali cations of company sta .
Valid Training Certi cate in the Last 3-5 years

You will be required as you progress in your profession a certi cate as


evidence of continues learning.

This is the reason continues training for every 3-5 years maximum is needed
to satisfy employment requirements, particular to unique opportunities from
distinct project stakeholders.

Engineers, architects, and construction professionals will be required to


attached/upload their latest training certi cate in the last 3-5years, not more
than this timeframe.

It’s an added advantage to facilitate interview and approval process when


applying for a job, accreditation by government department, and attachment
during tender, and approval to join a project team.

Important Notes:
 The above are ONLINE Training only.
 Those who wish to take the 2-Day classroom training directly, must rst
complete at least the FMCP in order to have an overview and basic
knowledge in project management; otherwise it will not be allowed to
take directly the 2-Day classroom training.
 The only exception to this case, to take the 2-Day Classroom training is
for trainees whose aim is to learn the advance knowledge and skills in
project management as a professional advantage and for career
enhancement.
 Some trainees with 0-5 years or minimal related construction project
experience may fail to follow the discussion during the 2-Day classroom
training because of unrealistic expectations.
 Taking the 2-Day Classroom advanced training will NOT instantly make
someone quali ed to be a construction manager or project manager.
Take note, however, that to become competent in project management,
construction, and engineering projects require considerable degree of
both experience and formal training.
