Leaders across Melton’s major projects will soon be able to further develop their skills and expertise, with the state government set to deliver the Office of Projects Victoria’s [OPV] pre-eminent Australian Major Projects Leadership Academy [AMPLA] program.
The state government has appointed McKinsey & Company and the Stanford Centre for Professional Development to deliver the 12-month program, which will enhance the capability of public sector leaders to guide Victoria’s 160-plus major road and rail projects, including the West Gate Tunnel Project, ongoing level crossing removals and the construction of the new Footscray Hospital.
The training program will focus on onsite learning tailored to participants’ needs to fine-tune construction management and leadership skills.
Treasurer Tim Pallas said with the state leading the way in delivering major projects across the health, education and transport sectors, it is important to ensure leaders have appropriate project management skills.
“This program builds the state’s project management and delivery skills and ensures Victorians get great value from every initiative on the go,” he said.
