Who should take this course 

Superintendents, project engineers, and coordinators who manage communication and decisions, along with anyone responsible for aligning teams and keeping work visible across the project. 

Why this course matters 

On a jobsite, conversations happen constantly. When decisions are not captured clearly, teams rely on memory or scattered messages, which leads to confusion, delays, and repeated work. Teams need a clear way to decide what to document and where to put it so information can be found later. This course helps you capture communication and decisions in the right place so they stay visible and traceable.

  • Recognize when communication and decisions should be captured 
  • Choose the right tool based on urgency, formality, and who needs to be involved

  • Use meetings and correspondence to align teams and track follow-up work
