“Construction Documentation” course eases paperwork for construction students and professionals

WATERBURY, Conn. (Jan. 16, 2008) – This Spring, NVCC is offering a “Construction Documentation” course to industry students and professionals.  The course was not listed in the Spring 2008 catalog.

The course focuses on the documents used in construction contracts, including agreements, general conditions, drawings, specifications, addenda, sub and material contracts and daily logs among others.  Students will learn about the technical and legal documents currently used in the construction industry; how they are formed, applied, and interpreted; and how contractors view them.

The course is part of NVCC’s Construction Technology Certificate Program, which combines construction-specific technical knowledge and construction process management education.  The program prepares students for positions in construction and building inspection as construction cost estimators, job cost estimators, construction supervisors and construction managers.  The program also offers skilled workers, who are currently in the construction industry, an opportunity to advance toward positions in construction management or design. 

The course will be held on Thursdays from 5:30 – 8:30 p.m.  Registration is open until Jan. 24.  For more information call (203) 575-8090 or visit www.nvcc.commnet.edu.
