Commercial Print Reading Fundamentals - September 6 - October 16 (Online or In-Person)  

Hybrid - Self Paced Online with Weekly Live Learning Sessions 

This course lays the essential groundwork for reading commercial building blueprints. It imparts skills such as interpreting site plans, architectural drawings, foundation, and structural blueprints, along with additional insights into reading an Architect's/Engineer's Scale, grasping specifications and building codes, recognizing various construction materials and their applications, and deciphering welding symbols on commercial blueprints.

This hybrid version of the course is structured for you to engage in reading assignments, online modules, and workbook exercises throughout the week, dedicating around 3-4 hours. Then, every Wednesday, you'll have the opportunity to connect live with the instructor and fellow students, either in-person or virtually, to go over and discuss the material covered during the week.

The course content is authored and delivered by seasoned professionals in commercial construction, leveraging an online learning platform that organizes materials and remains accessible for two years post-completion.
