Dear Members,

 

Please ensure that young staff members join us for the following course:

 

A COURSE WITH A DIFFERENCE!!!!!!!

 

BASIC CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION & QUALITY CONTROL

 

Offered by Theuns Eloff, this three day course promises to impart the practical skills to help candidates to understand the complexity of contract administration and the importance of quality control. The many handson exercises in this course will allow candidates to return to the workplace capable of drafting a tender document and compiling a payment certificate. Other activities including filling in a site diary after an incident, and compiling the tests required for pouring of concrete. He examines the range of procurement documents in detail, and takes candidates through the monthly activities involved in administering a contract – including occupational safety, payments, supervision issues, plant management and time extensions.

 

He also looks at quality assurance, getting candidates familiar with quality control and management issues, specifications and work ethics. Understanding the completion certificate and the defects liability period help to round off this course, giving candidates a thorough outline of this complex area of knowledge. Topics to be covered are:

 

·         Role players in civil projects

·         Supply chain management

·         Procurement and tendering

·         Procurement documents 

·         Health, safety and security

·         Quality assurance

·         Site documents and control

·         Specifications

 

A COURSE WITH A DIFFERENCE:  In line with the Academy's philosophy, presenters are available to offer support to candidates after the course: Candidates have the option of doing assignments to be completed after attending the course or getting workplace support after the course at an additional cost. The workplace support option is only available in Gauteng at present. Instead of assisting and advising candidates with a hypothetical assignment, the presenter may be used to assist the candidate with a ‘real live project’ to ensure that what has been learnt is correctly applied in practice.
