Supervisor Training Program (STP) 1
This LMCI sponsored program is designed to strengthen the abilities of project supervisors at all levels. It is appropriate for newer supervisors/foremen to broaden their understanding of the responsibilities of their job and to provide tools and techniques to better fulfill those responsibilities. It is appropriate for experienced supervisors to update their understanding of supervision, to strengthen their skills in traditional areas, and to develop new skills in emerging areas.
The field supervisor plays a key role in the construction process. Foremen plan daily and weekly activities for the crew and see that labor, materials, and equipment are invested in the most efficient way to accomplish a quality job. Upper level supervisors plan strategic operations for major jobs, groups of jobs or the company as a whole, and resolve production problems as they arise. Supervisors at all levels monitor, record and report work progress and interact with various project team members both within and external to the company to ensure smooth running operations.
The program is designed for considerable interaction among participants, encouraging them to learn from one another. It provides ample opportunities for large and small group interactions, as well as practice of skills important to the supervisors. The course is open to all field supervisors, foremen and those who anticipate fulfilling these roles in the near future. A management representative of the employer is encouraged to attend the course along with their sponsored employees.
