SELECT and Napier University have developed, with the support of the ECA, a HNC in Contracting Management, which will be delivered by Lauder College, Dunfermline on a distance learning basis.

The course is aimed at engineers, project managers, contracts managers and other similarly technically qualified personnel in the contracting industry. It is focused on the specific needs of the industry and allows students to widen their development as managers through a two-year programme.

The next enrolment will take place from 29 September to 1 October 2006 at a residential weekend. For further information and a course reservation form, please contact Amanda Meldrum on 0131 445 9217.

The course is also offered on a day release basis at colleges throughout England. For further details visit www.eca.co.uk and click on education and training.
