Learn how construction projects actually get built, from the first set of plans to final closeout. This free course walks through the core skills every project manager, superintendent, and estimator needs: reading plans and specifications, estimating and bidding, scheduling, managing subcontractors, handling RFIs and submittals, controlling costs, and keeping jobs safe and on track.
Whether you’re new to the industry, moving up from the field, or studying for a career in construction management, each lesson breaks down real-world processes in plain language so you can apply them on your next project.
