In this unit, you will apply the processes of project risk management to construction projects to create authentic risk management documents. Project case studies for this unit will be negotiated with your employer or a local industry partner. You will undertake a risk study on a key aspect of the construction project, conduct a risk and compliance audit of a project, and negotiate with construction project people to develop a risk reduction plan. Your focus will be on identifying opportunities for continual improvement in risk and compliance management through the development of practical and contemporary solutions that can be implemented on a real project.

This unit also introduces learning through practice by exposing you to authentic learning experiences. These experiences are placed at the centre of learning and assessment, so you have the opportunity to develop the skills, knowledge and behaviours necessary to respond to industry, community and/or global needs.
You will be introduced to:

- a range of methods, tools, techniques and approaches to practice
- principles and perspectives such as values, ethics, empathy and leadership in real world scenarios
- reflection and deliberative thinking as a means of developing knowledge, skills, attitudes and aspirations
- ways of understanding problems and developing solutions through active inquiry.
