1. The need for Continuing Professional Development in the investment projects management.

Bulgaria differs from the other European countries in implementing practices for good investment projects management. There are many reasons for this but the most important are the facts that the bulgarian laws have not addopted european practices and that this matter is not being taught in the educational institutions.

The Union of Architects in Bulgaria undertakes the obligation to address these issuess and increase the level of knowledge for professionals in the sector by conducting courses for post-graduate qualification in investment projects management and application of FIDIC contracts in terms of Bulgarian legislation.

The attempts for using teachers from other countries were not very successful, because it turned out that they were not well informed about the Bulgarian practice and the peculiarities of the Bulgarian legislation.

There are specialists in UAB who know the matter very well. They work as academics in universities and they have worked as consultants and managers of investment projects in Bulgaria and abroad and have participated in projects under the contractual terms of FIDIC.

UAB has a well equipped halls for courses and prepares the materials for the training.

The courses are for architects, engineers, lawyers and economists. Furthermore, they can be carried out for individual companies supervisory companies and construction companies, municipalities and municipal companies, ministries and organizations related to the implementation of investment projects.

3. Training modules.
