The gap

A degree and a software licence don't make a planner.

Six things stand between most engineering graduates and a project controls role.

AIPPC closes that gap. Learn the workflow. Apply the methodology. Build the evidence.

The difference

Primavera is a tool. Project controls is the profession.

Eleven capabilities employers ask about. Here's what each route actually covers.

Curriculum

Nine modules, one continuous project.

Every module ends in something you can show. Filter by what you want to build.

Integrated case study

Orion Commercial Tower.

One project runs through the whole internship — a Dubai commercial high-rise under FIDIC Red Book. You plan it, schedule it, cost it, measure it, and report it, month after month.

Career pathways

Roles this internship is built for.

Important: AIPPC strengthens practical capability and employability. It does not guarantee jobs, placement, salary or employment. Outcomes depend on your qualifications, performance, experience and employer requirements.

Eligibility

Who should join.

Preferably a bachelor's degree in engineering or architecture. Graduates with some experience are welcome, as are professionals in planning, controls, contracts and quantity surveying.

About EDGE

You learn inside a project controls consultancy.

Not a software training centre. Consultancy work feeds the knowledge, the knowledge feeds the training, and the training feeds your project work.

Testimonials

What learners say.

“AIPPC was the turning point in my transition into Project Controls. It gave me much more than theoretical knowledge—I developed practical skills in Primavera P6, planning, scheduling, progress monitoring, EVM, cost control, delay analysis, Power BI, reporting and contracts. The project-based learning helped me understand how these activities actually work in a professional environment. When I secured my Project Controls role, I found the transition into the workplace much easier because I had already worked through many of the concepts and processes during AIPPC. I could understand what was expected of me, communicate confidently with the team and contribute without feeling like I was starting from zero. AIPPC gave me the practical foundation and confidence I needed to start my career in Project Controls.” — Harikrishna, UAE
