DAY 3: FEBRUARY 10 – COMMUNICATION FUNDAMENTALS

The success of any project requires effective control of construction costs on the job site.

Project supervision is more than managing the job—it’s about ensuring the project is completed on time, safely, and within budget, while also looking after the well-being of your team.
