Eindhoven, Netherlands, March 06, 2017 --(PR.com)-- A successful project starts with a well-founded estimate of the costs. The 4-day Cost Estimating Foundation course focuses on the basics of cost estimation, approaches for different aspects of the estimating profession and the application of them.

During this course the emphasis is on practical experience as well as theoretical knowledge. At the end of the Cost Estimating Foundation course the participants have:
· A basic understanding of the definitions of cost estimation, cost control and planning. The participants will also be able to read cost engineering reports and put it in the perspective of your project.
· The basic knowledge to prepare and evaluate estimates quicker and more accurately. This will immediately have its effect on the control the participants have on the cost of their project.
· The ability to make their own factor estimates and validate factor estimates prepared by others.
· The knowledge to identify major cost risks of engineering. Together with the estimating methods this means the participants will be able to estimate the engineering involved in their projects.

The Cost Estimating Foundation course is suitable for everyone who is part of any team that executes industrial projects. The course is aimed at: project managers/directors, finance project executives/managers, project engineers, cost estimators, project cost engineers, etc.
