Programme overview

Project Planning, Control, Monitoring and Risk * This is one module of three required to complete the CIOB’s Certificate in Construction Site Management.

“The CIOB Certificate is an excellent grounding in key elements of construction site management. I have 10 years’ experience as a site supervisor/site manager. All my experience gained was from a practical background and my education was on the job. The course helped me understand why I was doing things the way I was doing them. But I also learned plenty of new things that I can apply on the job now.”

Stephen Geraghty, Collen.
