Preparing to begin my own educational pursuit for my Associates in Construction Management. As a Black woman in Alabama, I hope to break the mold and bring more minorities into this growing industry.
Don't look at yourself that way. Just focus on being good at what you do. Race and gender have nothing to do with it. Be hardworking, competent and good team player. That's all you need to do.
Construction is complex, my best word of advice is to self-educate outside of class and more importantly with the trades on the jobsite. Stay humble and success will follow! You got this!! 😃
Thank you Ms. JOHNSON for this wonderful insight. I am a PMI - CAPM holder. I have a lot of interest in construction management and for awhile now I have been trying to transition into this field. Your insights into this field is very handy. Thank you
This is really helpful. Very coincize, enlightening and educative. I am planning to get certified in project management and this is just a good piece of link to help my career growth . Thank you
Congratulations to your Dad, for raising a smart child and your husband for strong support . A fine example to show how men can be such a positive influence and a strong strength
@@chinyeregoddard6345 After doing architecture degree, to do construction project management, there is no as such course, but pg in project management is there, is normal pg in project management after architecture, will it help for construction project management???
Just took a PM/Sales job with a newer firm. Getting in at the ground floor. Provided leads, sell the job, and manage after on hourly pay. I’m so excited!!! I need to learn fast!
So I just stumbled on this as I was looking for online trainings for `real life construction mgt scenarios´ ...and i learnt a lot! I am trying to practice with my Construction mgt Masters degree after over 10 years in Architecture. Heard about Well Building Standard for the first time today ;) Thank you Chinyere .
Thanks Chinyere for the insight,very inspiring. I'm from Kenya, I did Bachelor of Construction Management here in Africa-Kenya, completed in 2015, are there opportunities there for people like me in Africa.
Thank you . I studied Civil engineering in Nigeria and over five years experience in the construction industry in Nigeria . I want to do a one year post graduate diploma in Construction Management in Ontario Canada. What is the possibility of getting a job in Construction Project Management in Canada being a female?
Wow, Chinyere, you are incredibly inspiring. I work for my father's boutique owner's representative firm. I'm wondering who your client is, if it is the owner, or how is your field different?
Hi mam, finally I'm writing my thoughts down here. Your channel has really inspired me. I spent a whole day going through your videos when I was preparing interviews for a site engineer role abroad, I'm soooo excited about this role. Even though it is true, I didn't realise how much this industry is worldwide saturated more importantly, how this has an effect on the everyday life of Indian engineers I grew up in India and 7 years before completed my B.TECH(CIVIL- ENGINEERING) and now I am doing normal civil engineer job in india !! This is so embraced and I feel this is a headache I still can't move abroad I am trying it. I want to encourage Indian engineering students, especially those from the Indian community and with lack of English barrier and also it being their second language, to follow their dreams to become an engineer in Abroad. Only one chance to give me I will perform definitely
Hey gm, just came across this video. Very directional and interesting. I'm coming from a bk-ground in OSH & Environment, & I want to merge PM Construction. I got alot of information, so I will start there. I'm also from Trinidad and Tobago. Congrats on your achievements!!!!
Can you reply to me? I have watched this. I have a BA in construction and Master's in Marketing Management (Business) I am interested in project management in construction. PLease can you advise what route I can take to get into this sector :)
I’d suggest networking at construction events and updating your LinkedIn profile to reflect your interests and current construction pursuits to help refine where you’d best fit in the vastness of the industry. Connect with people & proactively post content. Perhaps also consider short/ part time courses at local colleges for continuous learning. Those would be good starting places.
Do you recommend getting into the field if i have no construction experience. My friend has an open position but im scared since i lack the experience .
Hi,Need Guidance. My family is relocating to Canada by the end of this year. My husband has 22+ years of experience in construction management in India.

Are Quantity Surveyors in demand in Canada? Especially in Saskatoon looking to settle there
I’d imagine so, can’t say for sure. I’d say it’s worth a shot to explore this further if you really want to do it.
