Effect of Training on the Construction Project Performance Using System Dynamic

Abstract

The sector of construction is important for the country's economic, community, and ecological agendas and therefore takes an important role in Iraq's future; managers of the project are in charge of activities planning and coordinating, and at the same time, obtaining the best charge, period, resources of the human and material so that objectives of the predetermined project are finally gotten. Hence, it is productivity can be increased if the skills of the managers of the projects are improved the paper aims to determine the effect of training on the project's performance in terms of both time and quality to obtain the causal effect on the projects. The paper's methodology consists of a questionnaire distributed to 140 experts in different sectors to obtain the problem that affects the time and quality of the projects and then analyze these problems using the system dynamic technique. Depending on the effort of the research, the subsequent assumptions can be utilized: The training system in Iraqi construction is very weak and very negligible and doesn't contain any supervision Most of the engineers are not multidiscipline, and even if they work on the other discipline, the luck the principle of it. The nature of the construction industry in Iraq tends to use traditional methods in construction and refuses to use modern techniques. There are a series of shortages in communication between different disciplines and that creates a gap that leads to becoming an obstacle in the front of project completion.
