CCANZ CP 01 Weathertightness for Concrete and Concrete Masonry Construction
To view the flyer and registration form for this course please click here.
Course Introduction:
Trainees will achieve an understanding of the requirements of weathertight concrete and concrete masonry construction based on the Cement & Concrete Association’s ‘Code of Practice for Weathertight Concrete and Concrete Masonry Construction’ (CCANZ CP 01:2014).
The course also covers the theory that underpins the policies and practice of being a Building Control Officer (BCO) which is one component of the learning requirements for the Diploma in Building Control Surveying - Small Buildings.
The course is BOINZ standards-based, which means that trainees must attain a pre-determined level of theory-based knowledge and practical skills and be able to competently apply this knowledge in a practical situation, either in the workplace or in a simulated situation.
A standard-based course also enables trainees, who don’t achieve competence in the theory exam, to be offered the opportunity to undertake further training to strengthen areas of weakness and to be reassessed in those areas.
The course concludes:
- Tutor presentation
- Tutor-led activities, group-work & discussion
- Student learning resources
- Assessment activities
To complete the course participants will be required to:
- Actively participate in all sessions
- Work in pairs or teams to complete some exercises
- Individually complete (and pass) the final assessment
- Provide feedback/evaluation of the course
