To consolidate the content learned
Presentation of the project results
Changes are possible. The course content is updated regularly.
You are familiar with the possible uses of AI in project management and can plan resources and communication as well as analyze trends. You are also able to make work processes more efficient with tools such as ClickUp. You are familiar with effective prompt engineering with ChatGPT and Copilot Chat.
You will also be able to independently implement typical planning tasks in road construction and civil engineering. You will master important functions such as digital terrain models, axis and profile planning as well as volume and drainage calculations.
The course is aimed at people with a degree in architecture and engineering, technicians, draughtsmen and technical draughtsmen as well as specialists from related industries with appropriate professional experience.
At the end of the course, you will take the exam for the internationally recognized Basic Certificate in Project Management (GPM) ®. The certification exam is conducted by PM-ZERT (certification body of the GPM Deutsche Gesellschaft für Projektmanagement e. V.). V.). It is based on the ICB ® (IPMA Competence Baseline ®) regulations and provides a detailed insight into your newly acquired qualifications in the field of project management, thus facilitating your career entry and advancement.
Civil 3D is also used as standard in many construction and engineering offices. With your acquired knowledge, you can gain a foothold in positions such as CAD technician, CAD planner or in civil engineering.
Didactic concept
Your lecturers are highly qualified both professionally and didactically and will teach you from the first to the last day (no self-study system).
You will learn in effective small groups. The courses usually consist of 6 to 25 participants. The general lessons are supplemented by numerous practical exercises in all course modules. The practice phase is an important part of the course, as it is during this time that you process what you have just learned and gain confidence and routine in its application. The final section of the course involves a project, a case study or a final exam.
Virtual classroom alfaview®
Lessons take place using modern alfaview® video technology - either from the comfort of your own home or at our premises at Bildungszentrum. The entire course can see each other face-to-face via alfaview®, communicate with each other in lip-sync voice quality and work on joint projects. Of course, you can also see and talk to your connected trainers live at any time and you will be taught by your lecturers in real time for the entire duration of the course. The lessons are not e-learning, but real live face-to-face lessons via video technology.
The courses at alfatraining are funded by Agentur für Arbeit and are certified in accordance with the AZAV approval regulation. When submitting a Bildungsgutscheinor Aktivierungs- und Vermittlungsgutschein, the entire course costs are usually covered by your funding body.
Funding is also possible via Europäischen Sozialfonds (ESF), Deutsche Rentenversicherung (DRV) or regional funding programs. As a regular soldier, you have the option of attending further training courses via Berufsförderungsdienst (BFD). Companies can also have their employees qualified via funding from Agentur für Arbeit (Qualifizierungschancengesetz).
