“Inspection & Reporting Skills”

A key objective of the following courses is to help inspectors better understand how to structure and create accessibility and defect statements from scratch (i.e. starting with a blank sheet of paper). This knowledge can then be practically implemented in the field to complete a report, especially if there are complex issues that need to be brought to the (urgent) attention of the client.
