Document Controller designation may sound as an unimportant and nondescript position. However, they play a pivotal role in ensuring that the wheels of progress in a project keep turning, by managing the flow and accessibility of updated documents. If you are holding this position or aspire to take up one to further your career, this is a comprehensive short duration course designed to provide you the necessary knowledge, skills, and tools to carry it out effectively and earn the confidence and trust of your project management colleagues. Our recommendation is to take this course together with the Project Secretary course to have a better understanding of both the functions.
A fully recorded short duration course that comprises six modules, it can be completed within a day.
The course covers various topics that include the objectives and need for document control, the basics of document control procedures and Quality Management System standards, record keeping, archiving, and document distribution and retrieval.
The course explains the role and scope of a Document Controller, the different types of documents that are handled in a construction project, and introduces participants to electronic document management systems (EDMS). Upon completion of the course, participants will have the necessary skills and knowledge to implement best practices in document handling and control in construction projects, making them valuable assets to any project team.Â
The course is most suitable for anyone aspiring to the position of Document Controller in a Project Management set up for large construction projects, maintenance projects, or similar setup.
In most projects  it can be observed that there is plenty of overlap between the functions of the Document Controller and that of the Project Secretary. It is a common practice to combine both positions and appoint a single individual to tackle both positions in smaller projects.  Hence, we recommend that you take the Project Secretary Course also along with this course so that you will gain a well rounded knowledge of both functions. Please give a serious consideration to our suggestion and reach out to us so we can consider a special price for you.
