Building
Information
(4 units; 32 hours):
Modeling
Building Information Modeling (BIM) is changing the way projects are constructed. Whether you are a prime contractor using BIM across an entire project or a subcontractor impacted by a specific BIM implementation, this emerging practice requires new mindsets and technological know-how in order to achieve significant improvements in efficiency and cost control.
AGC’s BIM Education Program — developed in conjunction with leading BIM practitioners, technology firms, and educators — is designed to prepare construction professionals at all experience levels to successfully implement BIM on a construction project.
Lean Construction (7 units; 35 hours):
Everyone related to the construction process has an incentive to get the project done faster and at a lower cost — from the project owners who want to see results for their investment to the contractors and designers who want to do their job well and move on to the next project. Lean Construction is based on the holistic pursuit of continuous improvements aimed at minimizing costs and maximizing value on a construction project: planning, design, construction, activation, operations, maintenance, salvaging, and recycling.
To help contractors develop the knowledge needed to build Lean, the Associated General Contractors of America developed the Lean Construction Education Program (LCEP). Construction professionals at all experience levels will learn the building blocks necessary Training with AGC to transform their projects and companies into a Lean Operating System.
Project Management Development (5 units; 80 hours): The Project Manager Development Program (PMDP) is for early-career project managers or those looking to move into such a role. It is a fivecourse program that covers the essentials of project management and provides a solid foundation for longterm career development. Each unit is around 16 hours of content, making the 5-course program around 80 hours of instruction. The curriculum is offered at many of AGC’s chapters nationwide or can be brought in-house to construction firms and educational institutions in order to teach a new generation of project managers the essential skills to ensure project success.
PMDP participants are likely to have various titles depending on the kind of work they perform, the geographical location of their projects, and the size of their company. They may have titles such as assistant project manager, project manager, field engineer, project engineer, project administrator, etc. They may have experience as estimators, field personnel, project assistants, or office managers, and they may work in the heavy and highway sector, the commercial building sector, or in residential construction. They will most likely be early in their careers, have some post-high-school education, and less than two years of project-related experience.
Construction Supervision Fundamentals (1 unit; 25 hours)
Introductory, on-boarding: The CSF course is designed for aspiring front line leaders who are looking to learn the entry level management skills to lead construction activities. This course is the first step in the path to develop construction supervisors. This interactive course allows the building trades and craft workers to experience construction supervision techniques firsthand and create a professional development plan to achieve personal career goals.

CONSTRUCTION CORRESPONDENCE AND BUSINESS WRITING
Understanding the why and how of construction correspondence is not always simple for those new to construction or to those advancing through the ranks. The ability to write in an effective style that is direct, professional, comprehensive, and understandable leads to higher levels of efficiency and better opportunity. The construction industry has very specific requirements for project documentation and communications that require very focused efforts. This non-academic, all-day, hands-on workshop will guide participants through the basic pieces of correspondence used in the construction industry. It approaches everything from the basic rules of grammar to industry specific documentation requirements. Participants will engage in improving their comprehension and writing through fun, fast paced exercises designed to demonstrate both the why and the how for each piece of correspondence being considered. Specific correspondence considered includes:
• Notice of Delay and Delay Impact
• Notice of Differing Site Conditions or other Changes
• Notice of Unresolved Issues – Potential Claim
• Notice of Substantial Completion
• Change Order Requests
• Requests for Information – RFIs
• Meetings - reports and advanced communication of meeting agenda

CONTRUCTION LAW: ADVANCED CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS
The best construction contracts and subcontracts effectively outline project scope, detail expectations, identify risk allocation, and more. When conflicts arise, the parties’ written agreements also provide the roadmap for judges or arbitrators to help resolve future disputes. As a result, the contents of these agreements are critical and will often “make or break” potential claims. Unfortunately, confusing language and legal jargon—further complicated by impacts caused by COVID-19—often make it difficult to understand exactly what risks you are signing up for. This class will highlight some of the most critical and commonly disputed contract clauses to help you know what to look out for to protect your company and effectively manage the risks inherent in every construction project.
Target Audience: General contractors, Owners, Subcontractors, and Sureties.

CONSTRUCTION LAW: CONSTRUCTION WARRANTY, DEFECTS, AND PROPERTY DAMAGE: THE INTERSECTION OF LEGAL EXPERIENCE & INSURANCE KNOW-HOW
Insurance remains one of the most overlooked and under-utilized assets of construction companies. Yet its potential for project- and business-saving remedies should be foremost in every project manager’s mind.

This is a must-attend program for everyone who is relied upon to understand the different types of insurance coverage available to cover these types of claims. What’s more, you will also benefit from a thorough explanation of the contractual provisions typically used to protect your business and shift the risk of loss to the responsible project participants.

CONTRUCTION LAW: SCHEDULING IMPACT CLAIMS -- COMMON LEGAL ISSUES AND PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR ASSERTING AND PROVING DELAY, DISRUPTION, AND ACCELERATION CLAIMS
The course will be a practical discussion of what sorts of things a contractor/subcontractor/owner should be thinking about in order to prepare for the eventuality of a delay, disruption, or acceleration claim. Presented by a construction attorney and a construction scheduling expert, the seminar will discuss important legal aspects of delay, disruption, and acceleration claims, while also going over the practical realities of asserting or defending such claims, such as what a critical path analysis entails and what documents a scheduling expert would ideally want a contractor, subcontractor, or owner to have in order to analyze a scheduling-impact claim.
• Understand the function of risk-shifting clauses – why do they exist and why should you use them.
• How to identify the risk-shifting clauses in a contract – where to look and how to identify them.

CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULING
Critical Path Method (CPM) Scheduling is the most widely used scheduling technique in the Transportation market. This scheduling technique is used to plan and control a project and to calculate the minimum completion time for a project along with the possible start and finish times for the project activities.
Construction contracts require the creation and maintenance of construction schedules. Most construction projects are driven by the Critical Path Method of scheduling (CPM). This all-day workshop equips participants with the knowledge base required to understand the critical path and ultimately use the schedule as a valuable management tool. Participants will engage in an all-day, hands-on learning session that works methodically through the schedule creation and monitoring process (manually - no computer). The entire scheduling process will be discussed as the exercise develops.
Upon completion participants will:
• Know what the critical path is and how it is derived
• Know the basic elements, steps and sequence of CPM scheduling
• Know what resource and cost loading is
• Know how to show the impacts of change and delay in a construction schedule
