Registered VALUE MANAGEMENT (VM) Programme (12 HOURS)

People are engaged in cost reduction exercise in their everyday business and leisure. People may also spend
a huge sum of money on something they like at first sight without evaluating the real needs and comparing
with the function to price ratios with other alternatives. Value management (VM) techniques help people
analyse their needs in a systematic manner and find options giving more values for the same or lower price.
Nowadays, architectural, engineering, surveying and construction professionals should not only acquire their
cognate technical knowledge. Additional management skills are also necessary to make them successful. VM
techniques are definitely one of these skills widely adopted in order to achieve excellence in various disciplines
particularly in construction, engineering and industrial projects as well as in daily life. This training programme
would help you understand and master the techniques and apply value management in your everyday
business and leisure.
After the completion of this training programme of 6 sessions, any participant who holds a Bachelor’s degree
plus 5 years’ post-degree working experience, or who is a full professional member of other professional

HKIS, HKICS, HKICM), or who has obtained a Doctoral degree, will be eligible for admission as a Member of
