About
Communication plays a vital role in engineering projects. Engineering projects are complex and require the involvement of multiple parties, including engineers, architects, contractors, project managers, and clients. Effective communication is essential to ensure that all parties involved in the project are on the same page and working towards the same goal. In engineering, communication takes place at various stages of the project, from the initial planning and design phase to construction and maintenance. Communication can be verbal or written, and it involves the exchange of information, ideas, and feedback. Effective communication in engineering can help to prevent misunderstandings, reduce errors, and ensure that the project is completed on time and within budget. It also helps to build trust and collaboration among the different parties involved in the project. The course is self-taught and self-paced, meaning you have the flexibility to learn in your time and your own pace, you can also come back to the course in the future. The course is for anyone wanting to learn about the topic, either for beginners or even those who have experience but want to fill in potential knowledge gaps, the course is especially useful for anyone preparing for the ICE or IStructE reviews as each course is aimed at the main attributes / core objectives of being a chartered engineer. The course should take a couple of hours to complete and uses a combination of text, pictures, and quiz questions to cover the basics of communication in engineering, including: • Verbal • Emails • Reports • Presentations • Calculations • Drawings
