SAICE-PDP, ever vigilant, recognised this challenge.
Instead of letting these unprecedented times sideline engineers, we took action. New course material was developed, specifically addressing the contractual and project delivery issues that arose in this “new normal.” SAICE-PDP managed to stay ahead of the curve during the 2020 lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Recognising the limitations of travel, SAICE-PDP pivoted to online courses, making crucial knowledge accessible to engineers from anywhere in the world.
