the benefits of ATC forcontract delivery and a widely applicable innovative design can be exploited. Although theintegration of ATC for contract delivery of ABC project has such a positive impact, fewconstruction stakeholders are well-equipped with knowledge and skills to work with such amethod in ABC projects. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a reformed and pragmaticcurriculum that disseminates recent advanced practices to foster critical skills amongConstruction Management (CM) students.Construction practices have significantly evolved in terms of innovation, technologicaladvancement, and economic expansion to better address the growing complexities ofconstruction projects. However, CM education/curriculum is yet delayed in reforming

motivating, leading, and communicating with workers. Academicprograms should develop their programs to promote the development of these skills in theirstudents.The construction industry is expanding its use of technologies on construction projects as awhole, and safety practices and management specifically. Technological skills are becomingmore important for new graduates looking to enter the industry. New hires should be familiarwith technologies in the following areas: design and jobsite visualization (e.g., BIM, VR,AR), mobile communication, wearable sensors, smart sensors, and the various productionequipment and technologies used on projects. Incorporation of these technologies intocoursework should be a priority for academic programs. Emphasis

, and inappropriate construction practices [3], [4]. Furthermore, proper planning forinfrastructure projects, or better-called infrastructure management (IM), is often not met due tothe complexity of such projects, thus causing schedule overruns and failure to meet theforecasted budgets. Research shows that, despite the usual practices, the best way to deliver aproject is focusing on the Front-End Planning (FEP) phase, prior to authorizing its funding andsubsequent construction [5], [6]. The FEP of a project is a fundamental process of scopedefinition so that the stakeholders can address and minimize risks to accomplish improvedproject outcomes [7]. Applying FEP practices to infrastructure projects is vital for thedevelopment of these projects
