Certificate IV in Civil Construction Supervision

Civil Construction Supervisors are integral to many different work situations in the Civil Construction Industry. They can be field supervisors, technical supervisors, work supervisors, team leaders, leading hands, foremen, overseers and inspectors, each with responsibility for leading a team towards achieving workplace goals using a team-based approach.

Civil Construction Supervisors perform tasks involving a broad range of civil construction activities most of which can be complex and non-routine and contribute to the development of technical solutions to non-routine problems and therefore must have sound civil construction trade level skills and knowledge.
