Getting Paid & Managing Cash Flow in Construction

Monday, August 24, 2026 · 8:00 AM – 12:00 PM (America/Edmonton)Online

Virtual Instructor Led Training

Payment in the construction industry is a problem. This creates problems for both the owner and the contractor as well as the other participants involved with the project (consultant, subcontractors, sub-subcontractors and suppliers).
The Canadian Construction Documents Committee (CCDC) and the Canadian Construction Association (CCA) publish standard contracts and guides for the construction industry.

In this half-day course the payment process in standard contracts (CCDC-2 Stipulated Price Contract, CCA-1 Stipulated Price Subcontract, CCA-19 Stipulated Price Sub-Subcontract) will be reviewed along with contract language from non-standard contracts
which can delay payment. It is important to recognize when your client is trying to work language into the contract which delays payment (pay-if-paid, pay-when-paid, “notwithstanding” clauses)

Guides covered by the course:

• CCA 28 – A Guide to Improving Cash Flow in the Construction Industry
• CCA 50 – A Prime Contractors Guide to Project Financing and Payment Security
• CCA 53 – Trade Contractors Guide and Checklist to Construction Contracts
• CCA Banking Guide for the Canadian Construction Association
• CCDC 12 – Project Financial Information Disclosure Form

Who should attend?
Anyone who is involved with billings and payment. Managers, Project Managers, Project Coordinators, Project Accountants of all levels will benefit from the workshop.

This course is delivered in partnership between MCA AB and other Construction associations throughout Western Canada. You’ll be participating in a cohort with industry peers from across these regions.
