Construction Methods and Techniques

(32-Hour CCPE Training Program)

Category A – Planning, Design, Construction Methods and Techniques (A.1.24)

To support engineers pursuing Regular Accreditation under the DPWH Certified Construction Project Engineer (CCPE) Program, J3 Trainers and Consultants, Inc. (J3TCI) offers a 32-Hour Specialized Training Program on Construction Methods and Techniques.

This program falls under Category A – Planning, Design, Construction Methods and Techniques as required under the CCPE training compliance framework.

The course provides engineers with practical knowledge and modern approaches in the execution of infrastructure projects, focusing on effective construction techniques, construction planning integration, and field implementation methods used in roadworks, bridge construction, flood control structures, and concrete works.

The 32-hour program is divided into four (4) modules of eight (8) hours each, covering critical infrastructure construction methodologies widely used in public works and private construction projects.

Upon completion of the four modules, participants will be issued a Certificate of Completion – 32 Hours Construction Methods and Techniques, which may be used to comply with the training requirement for CCPE Regular Accreditation.

The training is facilitated by experienced construction professionals, engineers, and industry practitioners, ensuring that participants gain both technical knowledge and practical field-based insights.
