PMI Construction Interface Management Certification and Training.

Construction Interface Management

Master the essential skill of managing communications, relationships, and deliverables among stakeholders in large, complex projects.

Interface Management (IM) is integral to project success, and has emerged as an independent discipline in the delivery of Built Environment projects and mega projects. In this course, you will learn the fundamentals of Interface Management and how to use it to address challenges and minimize risks in Built Environment projects, as well as how to manage it effectively throughout the project lifecycle. The course also discusses the tools and processes that are available to enhance IM, and the skills and core competencies required to embed Interface Management into your Built Environment project.
