Effective integration of the distinctly different design and construction processes is a critical management responsibility for a successful design-build project. This course, along with DBIA’s Design Management Guide, explores the fundamental aspect associated with successful management of design within an integrated delivery framework. (8 CEUs)

The purpose of this course is to provide a foundation of the practical tools, information and advice needed to successfully fulfill the obligations of the role of design manager on a design-build project.

This course is integrated with The Design Management Guide for the Design-Build Environment Version 1.0.

Format: Virtual

The DBIA Virtual Training classroom is not an “online” experience, but instead a true “virtual” experience. It allows remote attendees a real-time participant experience, fully engaged with their instructor and others in the classroom. Full engagement is critical As such, the following is required for those joining the classroom virtually:

You MUST have video/camera capability on the computer you will be using;
You MUST keep your video/camera on during the entirety of the training (you may turn it off during breaks and lunch). Each participant is expected to be visible as a class participant throughout the training, just as it would be if you were physically in the classroom;
Please find a quiet location that will have minimal distractions/disturbances;
Please Mute your microphone when you are not speaking; and
Remain in the virtual classroom during class activities as they, too, will take place virtually and you are expected to participate.

DBIA instructors and staff will actively monitor your attendance and reserve to right to decline issuance of a certificate of completion should virtual attendees not actively participate based on the rules above.

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact Education@dbia.org.
