    About this course

    What you will learn

    Quality control proves that the work meets the specification. Without traceable tests and inspection records, even good work can be rejected.

    This course covers the key field and laboratory tests on building and road projects, how to interpret results against the project specification and how to manage inspection requests and non-conformance.

    Who this course is for

    • QA/QC engineers
    • Lab technicians
    • Site engineers
    • Inspectors
    • Material engineers
