Civil Engineering and Construction focused training

With over 20 years in the construction industry and as a professionally qualified civil engineer, I decided to create a new series of training courses called Engineering for Bid Writers. This bidding industry training specifically covers construction and civil engineering topics in short, easy-to-grasp sessions. Each course guides you through the fundamentals of the topic, allowing you to understand the concepts, collaborate with subject matter experts, and develop knowledgeable content.

Who this is aimed at

This training is aimed at individuals in the bidding industry who want to enhance their knowledge in these areas. It is not intended for practicing engineers, as they have access to a variety of civil engineering training options. This program would be ideal for a consultant bidding professional looking to deepen their expertise, an in-house bid team that needs to refine their content and library, or newcomers to the industry who require a foundational understanding without being overwhelmed by complex concepts. It serves as a great introduction to Engineering for Bid Writers.

Each course lasts around 2 hours, making them easy to digest, and all content is yours to keep. Have an idea for a course, such as Engineering for Bid Writers? Contact me to discuss!
