Highlighting four topics with a 2-hour session dedicated to each topic: (1) Managing Environmental and Social Impacts During Construction, Loans (2) Tenders, Contracts, & Evaluation (3) Introduction to Risk Assessment, and (4) Inspection, Audit, Monitoring, and Reporting. Discussions lead by a pool of resource speakers from the development partners, professionals in the environmental engineering field and the academe. Participants also had six-months access to added resource materials & recording of sessions, and a Certificate of Completion by the end of the program.
With 31 participants from different parts of the world, the event was attended by groups and individuals from different backgrounds –Development Banks, Local Government Units (LGUs), Consulting Firms, Academe, and Program Management Specialists to name a few.
