On completion of this course, delegates will be able to:
Understand the structure and format of the CESMM3 document
Be aware of the underlying ethos behind the CESMM3 approach
Apply the rules of CESMM3 to the measurement of work under a range of the "Classes" of work specified in the document
Understand and apply the Method Related Charges rules
Understand the importance of the relationship between the method of measurement and the conditions of contract
Who Should Attend?
