Thanks for watching the video. Please share below your takeaways from the video and what you consider as the #1 skill that every Cost Controller must have.
Skill no 1 is the most important, because there are many project controllers who are just using their past experience in other projects/ organization and applying same without having proper knowledge of what they are doing and what they need to do
Hi, Can i have cost control basics book you would recommend for understanding of terminology to a know from basic to a project level. Can i have an online course for the cost controller, Since i am having a background of Estimator, QS of 10 years of experience in Construction (Oil& Gas-Mechanical, Piping) and which i need to take on CCT certification as well.
