Description: Construction 101 - A Comprehensive Introduction to the Construction Industry
Entering the construction industry and trying to learn a piece here and there isn’t effective. Now there is a course designed to put the pieces of the construction industry puzzle together. Don’t let the name “101” fool you! The course is attended by new and long time employees who all find value in understanding the “why” in “what” we do. Learn all of the terms, acronyms, and assumptions that everyone in construction needs to know - whether you are a buyer, architect, engineer or builder.
This two-day course covers:
· Introduction to the Construction Industry - roles and responsibilities
· Construction Documents - bid documents and format of drawings
· Tendering, Bidding and Award of Contracts - calling and receiving of bids
· Format of Contracts
· Risk Management - bonding and construction insurance
· Legal Matters - basic principles and typical contract
· Project Management and Administration - start up to close out basics

Who should attend? New employees, those in administrative support roles and those looking to put all pieces of the construction industry together:
Contractors - Generals and Trades
Buyers of Construction Services - Municipalities, School Districts, etc.
Design Consultants - Engineers and Architects
