Construction Cost Estimating and Cost Control — Columbia University (2025)

Completed Columbia University's 'Construction Cost Estimating and Cost Control' course (2025), earning a course certificate. The course covers quantity takeoffs, cost estimation methods, budgeting, and cost control during construction execution. It maps directly onto my project controls work: WBS development, budget setup, SOV management, and EAC/ETC tracking on capital projects.

• Columbia University course certificate (2025)
• Quantity takeoffs and cost estimation methods
• Budgeting and cost control during construction execution
• Directly supports capital project controls work

I work in cost control on capital construction projects daily. Formal training in estimating and cost control strengthens the foundation under that work.

Deepened my understanding of how estimates are built from the ground up, which improves how I evaluate budgets, SOVs, and forecasts on live projects.
