Unique Online Learning

Concord Academy offers the world’s first self-paced, online, purpose-built certification program for capital project professionals. Rooted in the principles of Advanced Work Packaging, our certification program is designed to empower individual practitioners and capital project organizations with high-quality, accessible education and training.

The foundational training is a cost-effective solution for organizations looking to build team capacity in established and emerging areas of capital project management.

While most of the foundational content is standardized, each session includes a short, custom segment that aims to assist your team in implementing the new tools and tactics in their unique circumstances. The training content is delivered over a user-friendly online platform that allows trainees to monitor their progress and sit for tests to obtain certification.

Instructor assistance is also available through the platform allowing for trainees to ask questions, request more information and seek guidance on different topics.
