Interested in a career in scheduling or project controls, but not sure where to start? Join us as industry experts Michael J. Kaleda (former S.V.P of the MTA), Rajesh Sake (Acting Director Project Controls MTA), and Jeslin Varghese (Director, Project Controls MTA) help us navigate the world of planning, scheduling, and sustainability.

A very good introduction and presentation on the program & project controls. The inclusion of sustainability considerations and planning for its integration into the design and execution planning and programming phase of a project is essential for the current and future AEC industry. Project Controls will be a key element in ensuring that sustainable considerations are considered at project initiation and throughout the Project life cycle. Looking forward to continuing education in this most critical evolving element of the AEC industry
