NEC3 to NEC4 ECC Project Manager Accreditation extension (Hong Kong)

This course is restricted to those who are already accredited NEC3 Project Managers.

It is one-day of classroom training which includes group working on case studies to draw out the different processes in NEC4 compared to NEC3.

There is also an online assessment of multiple choice questions which will be distributed after the classroom sessions.

Qualification

Successful completion of this will give the delegate NEC4 Project Manager Accreditation which is valid for 5 years.

This training course starts at 09:00 and finishes at 17:00 with refreshment breaks mid-morning and afternoon, plus lunch.

All timings, except the start time, are approximate and may be adjusted to suit natural breaks in the lesson.
