"The content and delivery are clear, detailed, visual, highly professional and a positive learning experience"

Stefania Narum, Asset Integration Manager

This course offers so much – the concepts and knowledge to excel at change control, valuable insights for all project members, and practical offshore wind industry context. The content and delivery are clear, detailed, visual, highly professional and a positive learning experience. The course aims to develop truly effective management of change and improve project control culture to support project managers.

"Excellent course that I found to be useful in understanding the complexities and nuances of Change Control in a large renewables context"

Soren Kemp, Managing Director, Northstar Projects

Excellent course that I found to be useful in understanding the complexities and nuances of Change Control in a large renewables context. This has definitely allowed me to refine my professional practice in this area. For prospective learners, the course is highly engaging, presenting some complex and abstract concepts in a calm and coherent way, regularly anchoring to the underlying and tangible "why" of approaching project change control in this way.

"It was structured and it felt tailored to all levels of experience within the offshore wind industry"

James Hakim, PMO Analyst

The course and its contents were of great value to me; I praise it highly and will recommend it to colleagues and friends in the industry! It was structured and it felt tailored to all levels of experience within the offshore wind industry. I will be referring to the written content in the weeks to come while developing the CCP for the project I'm currently working on. It's been a great head start! Thank you RECOA.

"It is great value for money learning but more importantly upskilling yourself with this course could lead to better collaboration and create a pathway for project success"

Gordon Foot, Senior Client Representative

This course is the required foundational knowledge when operating at a senior level within an offshore windfarm project team whether off or onshore. The learning encompasses the aspects of wind farm fundamentals, change control and the critical aspects of project lifecycle, governance, stakeholders and interfaces. It is great value for money learning but more importantly upskilling yourself with this course could lead to better collaboration and create a pathway for project success.

About the Renewable Change Control Management Course

Change control on renewable projects plays a key role in the developer’s organisation.  It requires setting up change control processes and governance, facilitating the process, running change control boards, and proactively ensuring that no changes from the original project budget, schedule, and scope are missed. 

When changes are not properly controlled on a project, they cost time money, and resources that can negatively affect project outcomes. In this course, we explore not only the theory but also case studies and examples.

General candidates for the RCCM course include those who interact with change control management on projects working for developers, contractors, and suppliers. This can include roles such as project managers, engineers, procurement specialists, and other project team members. 

Candidates for the RCCM role will either come from a technical background or have worked in large infrastructure projects and can quickly understand how changes might impact other stakeholders. They have excellent communication skills and help facilitate communication among stakeholders. They must be structured and organised in their approach, but also capable of applying wisdom to a given situation to ensure that change control remains practical and easy.

While framed from the perspective of a Renewable Change Control Manager, the content of this course is directly relevant for Developers as it will:

  1. Introduce them to the fundamentals of change control management.
  2. Provide insight into how the Renewable Change Control Manager role fits into a Developer organisation's processes.
  3. Allow Developer's to infer the relationship between the Project Team and that of the Renewable Change Control Manager.


**These chapters are indirectly relevant to Joint Venture Partners, Contractors, and Suppliers as they provide a window into the structure of a Developer organisation and how their Project Team supports the Change Control process. By understanding the internal decision-making process, they can gather how to best engage with the Change Control process, anticipate the Developer's needs, and facilitate communication.
