Owner Training Institute
The Owner Training Institute® (OTI) plays a major role in COAA's overall educational mission. It includes 13 training courses designed specifically for Owners, live and on-demand webinars, “Learning Bites,” and discounts on Lorman Education products.
Owner Training Institute® Courses
COAA heard for years from its members and other facility Owners about the need for project management training for its leadership and project management staff. The wait is over - Training For Owners, By Owners is here!
The curriculum consists of 13 Owner-focused courses, focused on Core Skills, Process Management, Project Delivery, and Team Selection/Procurement. To maximize the learning experience, attendance is capped at 25, and courses are led by COAA's signature three-person team of instructors - an Owner, design professional, and builder - allowing participants to gain a great understanding of each party's perspective.
The newest course - "Lean For Owners" - was developed with the Lean Construction Institute (LCI) and made its debut in October of 2021 at the LCI Congress in Phoenix.
