Overview

Graduate Certificate in Construction Management (Optional Co-op)

This two-year graduate certificate at Conestoga College gives students the skills and knowledge to effectively initiate, plan, control and commission construction projects. 

Students will study the investment appraisal of development projects, planning, scheduling, budgeting and control of construction projects, and soft skills related to effective leadership, communication and negotiation. 

Students will learn to integrate construction methods, building code, and lean construction techniques into their projects. Learning will be enhanced through case studies, group work and field trips. 

The capstone project will enable students to apply, integrate and synthesize knowledge learned into a real-world project. 

The co-op or guided career management term will allow students to apply and practice knowledge and skills in preparation for the work environment. 

This program will prepare students to take various professional certification exams with the main focus on CAPM (Certified Associate Project Manager), PMP (Project Management Professional), PQS (Professional Quantity Surveyor designation) and Gold Seal certification. 

The optional co-op stream includes one co-op work term instead of the Guided Career Management course.
