OVERVIEW OF THE COURSE


We will be covering:

• Extraction information from drawings (not delivered in the team platform session)

The delegates will get interactive with a package of drawings such as:

Your Premier Guarantee trainer will also allow delegated time to familiarize themselves with construction drawings, and to start to draw and sketch some basic symbols, shapes, and lines. These will be used in a group discussion to drive home understanding of construction drawings and buildings.

There is a delegate booklet to complete as we go through the session. This is a very interactive session.

If delivered through the team’s platform you will need to purchase a scale ruler for each delegate.
