About This Course
Welcome to Construction Scheduling and Cost Control. Please allow me to introduce myself as your Instructor. I am Ivan Starr. I have been a residential contractor in California, Washington and Utah for nearly 40 years. I have built small starter home subdivisions and million dollar custom homes. I have been teaching at Snow College for 2 years and enjoy sharing my knowledge of the construction industry.
I believe that you will enjoy this class. You will learn valuable skills in both management and scheduling. You may learn a little about yourself in the process
The two-year Snow college program provides the skills and knowledge needed for a successful career in construction management. A construction management career can provide higher income that most any other two or four year college degree. Plus, the skills you learn will benefit you personally throughout your life.
