Global infrastructure services firm 1397 AECOM has launched an asset management training portal.


The portal is a combination of 14 e-learning modules and three webinars. Participants can complete modules on tablets, laptops or PCs. Learners study 39 subject areas and gain an AECOM Asset Management Certificate.

The objective of the course is to prepare learners to sit the IAM Certificate exam.

AECOM said that it is one of only a few companies endorsed by the Institute of Asset Management as both an endorsed assessor and trainer.

The Institute of Asset Management is a UK-based not-for-profit professional body for those involved in acquisition, operation and care of physical assets, especially critical infrastructure. It was instrumental in the development of the international standard ISO 55000 for asset management.

    Improved surface quality and improved machine design are key trends in the asphalt paving sector, Mike Woof reports There is a big difference in asphalt paving techniques in North America and Europe. In North America, the need to construct long stretches of highway quickly resulted in wide pavers offering high throughput capacity, with compaction equipment then being used to achieve the required density of the various courses. In Europe's highway construction projects, distances tend to be shorter and contr
