HND Construction Management for England (HTQ)

course

Overview

Construction management is the strategic oversight and coordination of all elements involved in a construction project, from initial planning to final completion. It entails managing resources, schedules, budgets, and teams to ensure the project is executed efficiently and according to specified quality standards. Construction managers play a vital role in facilitating communication among stakeholders, mitigating risks, and ensuring the overall success of the project.

The continuing growth of the construction industry in order to meet local and global demand has resulted in additional requirements for higher-qualified personnel who can deliver sustainable projects in the most cost-effective way. The HTQ is mapped to the Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education’s Occupational Standards and professional body standards with the aim of providing professional status Level 5 HND and progression to direct employment, upon successful completion of this course.
