About Shohreh Ghorbani

I am the founder of Project Control Academy, the leading global provider of best-in-class online training programs in project controls. Thanks for visiting my LinkedIn profile. Let me give you a brief introduction about the Academy and how we can serve you.Project Control Academy was established with the vision of filling the education gap in project controls by providing premier training, resources, and expert guidance in project controls and leadership.Just like many Project Controls practitioners, I learned project controls by experience. When I started my career in Project Controls, there was no formal education or even a comprehensive training program that could help me get started in project controls. I had great mentors who helped me tremendously in my project control journey. They inspired me to share my knowledge, serve and add value to people through my knowledge and experience. It was this conviction that inspired me to establish Project Controls Academy and help people soar to excellence in project controls.I am pleased that Project Control Academy, a PMI Registered Educational Provider, is now helping tens of thousands of individuals and several international corporations build their technical Project Controls knowledge and shave off years of trial and error in learning the vital skills in controlling their projects.We are grateful for conducting numerous training programs that have given our clients the knowledge they need to execute their projects successfully. We have provided top quality training programs to Kentz International, SNC-Lavalin, Stantec, Waste Management, Incitec Pivot, TransAlta, and Telvent to name a few.☛ If you’d like to explore how we can help you or your employees soar to excellence in project controls through best in class online and in-house training programs or private learning management system specifically designed for your organization, simply contact ✉ Support@ProjectControlAcademy.com or visit www.ProjectControlAcademy.com
