  • Week 1 - Introduction to Construction Scheduling
    The first module provides an overview of the Construction Scheduling course and the topics that will be covered. Learners will discover the relationships connecting construction activities, how to perform scheduling procedures, how to determine critical path a...
  • Week 1 - Bar (Gantt) Charts
    The second module introduces bar or Gantt charts and how they are used as scheduling tools. Bar charts represent a project work item or activity as a time scaled bar; the length of which represents the planned duration of a construction activity.
  • Week 1 - Activity Precedence Diagrams
    In this module, learners will create Activity Precedence Diagrams, also referred to as Activity on Node Diagrams, which graphically represent the construction activities in a project and their relationships.
  • Week 1 - Types of Construction Activity Relationships
    This module provides an overview of the types of construction activity relationships encountered in a construction project and how to represent them in an activity precedence diagram.
  • Week 1 - Forward and Backward Pass Calculations
    Forward and Backward Pass Calculations are covered in this module. Forward Pass Calculations determine the minimum dates at which each construction activity can be performed and, ultimately, the minimum duration of a construction project. Backward Pass Calcula...
  • Week 2 - Critical Path
    Professor Odeh discusses the importance of critical path in this module including what it is and why it is important. Learners will identify a critical path in a project and how to determine a critical path in different relationships.
  • Week 2 - Activity Floats
    Professor Odeh introduces the types of floats in a construction project including; total float, free float, interfering float and independent float.
  • Week 2 - Understanding Work Dates and Calendar Dates
    In this module, the difference between working dates and calendar dates is explained and how to chart both in a project plan.
  • Week 3 - Activity on Arrow
    Activity on Arrow diagrams are the topic for this module. Professor Odeh will discuss how to draw an activity on arrow diagram and how to number the nodes. Forward and Backward Pass calculations and determining the duration of a project are also covered.
  • Week 3 - Program Evaluation & Review Technique (PERT) and Range Estimating
    The Program Evaluation and Review Technique (PERT) is introduced in this module which relates to uncertainty in estimating the duration of construction activities in a project schedule. PERT helps project managers determine the probability of a project being c...
  • Week 3 - The Role of the Scheduler in Construction Management
    Jennifer Buermann, of the STV Group, discusses the role of the scheduler in a construction project and how to determine if a project is on track to meet the estimated goals. Also covered are ways to adjust to ensure the project stays on track.
  • Week 4 - Linear Construction Operations and Line of Balance
    Professor Odeh introduces linear construction; projects that have linear, or repetitive, properties. Also covered is the Line of Balance scheduling method which is a way of allocating resources for repetitive processes.
  • Week 4 - Technology Applications for Scheduling
    Dareen Salama, of the STV Group, discusses the technology applications used for scheduling. Dareen provides an overview of the applications used for scheduling development, schedule analysis, sharing and collaboration and visualization.
  • Week 5 - Scheduling for Large Programs
    Christopher Toomey, Senior Vice President of AECOM Global Programs, discussed scheduling for large programs also known as the Integrated Master Scheduler. Mr. Toomey illustrates how to develop and maintain the Integrated Master Schedule and identifies key feat...
  • Week 5 - Risk Allocation and Planning
    Dr. Eduardo Gamez, Deputy Director of Risk Management for AECOM, introduces Risk Allocation and Planning. Dr. Gamez discusses the importance of formal risk management and how to use risk assessment as a support tool for planning and scheduling.
  • Week 5 - Lean Design in Construction Scheduling
    Sam Spata, of MethodLean, discusses lean design and lean scheduling. The concept of Flow is introduced, the process of how to get from the beginning to the end of a project, as a measurable addition of value.

L'université Columbia est une université privée située dans le quartier de Morningside Heights, dans le nord-ouest de l'arrondissement de Manhattan, à New York (États-Unis). Elle trouve son origine dans le King's College fondée en 1754 par le roi George II de Grande-Bretagne. Elle est l'un des plus anciens établissements d’enseignement supérieur aux États-Unis et fait partie du groupe de l'Ivy League regroupant huit des universités les plus anciennes, les plus célèbres, les plus prestigieuses et les plus élitistes du pays.

Columbia est l'une des universités les plus sélectives et prestigieuses au monde. Le taux d'admission était de 5,1 % en 2019, comparable à ceux de Harvard et de Stanford. Classée première aux États-Unis pour la recherche, elle figure au sixième rang mondial (4e aux États-Unis) du classement CUWR des 1 000 meilleures universités mondiales et au huitième rang mondial du Classement Shanghai des universités.
