Technical Report Writing

You may think that technical report writing is a talent that a few lucky people are born with and because technical reports are very different from your typical business reports, it, of course, does come more naturally to some, but you definitely shouldn't buy into the myth that only gifted people can write technical reports.

If you've always told yourself - and others - that you just simply don't have a gift for technical writing, it's time for you to empower yourself and dispel that notion!

With the right training, you can produce professional and polished technical business reports that are quick and easy to read and understand. 

By attending this two-day course you'll learn, step by step, how to shape your thoughts and structure, draft and write clear and concise technical reports.

So, you recognise that having better technical report writing skills is vital to your career. But you are worried that this is going to be two-days of boring lectures. Don't worry - unlike other generic courses available, we have gone out of our way to design a training programme that is engaging, interactive but above all else practical!

This training course has been awarded two CPD points by SAICE Validation # SAICEbus15/01668/18.

Effective Construction Contract Management and Administration

Any building project, no matter the contract type has to undergo three specific stages namely the design, tender and then of course the actual physical construction phases. In any of the stages, the effective management and administration of contracts is critical in order to manage the design specifications, contractual agreements, competitive tendering, evaluation, cost control, variations, final accounts, claims and even disputes.

It goes without saying that the poor management of any of these aspects can lead to unnecessary delays, claims and disputes and eventually higher construction costs - which you want to avoid at all costs! When dealing with complex construction tenders, navigating the tendering minefield is a lot easier said than done. So, what do you need to know in order to successfully come out of this whole process with the signed tender in your hand?

This hands-on and practical effective construction contract management and administration training course has been designed to take you through a step-by-step analysis of the entire project life cycle and contract administration tasks and it will equip you with the skills you need to determine the inherent risks associated with each stage of the life cycle. You will also learn how to use all of the tools at your disposal to avoid cost and time over-runs, without the need to sacrifice quality.

In addition, this course will explore and incorporate all of the technical and procedural competencies that cover in detail the dealings between the contracting parties and concerned stakeholders. It will also combine both the commercial and contractual necessities which will support and promote the performance of the entire project from the time the contract is awarded until the work has been completed, payment has been made and any disputes settled. 

Using actual case studies and practical advice we will show you how to avoid problems and how to approach dispute resolution for optimum results using the most appropriate method to analyse the cause and effect.

So, if you are looking for a training course that will show you how to apply proven construction contract management and administration techniques, stop looking because this course offers you this and so much more!
