Course Overview
The “Project Management for EPC Projects” program is targeting project managers, project leaders, engineers and construction managers who are working in EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) projects for industrial plants, such as power plants, refineries, oil and gas, and the chemical industry. The content of the training is based on the “Project Management Handbook for EPC” published by our partner Project Team from Germany.
As this is an advanced project management training, some basic knowledge of project management (PMI®, PMBOK®) will be helpful to fully benefit from this training.
This Training Module of the EPCP® Certification Program is developed as entry-level training for project managers who consider going for the EPCP® Certification Program. This program is not mandatory as a pre-qualification to obtain the EPCP® certificate. However, it provides a comprehensive overview of the project management processes that are part of the full program.
