**Reading Construction Documents (6 Hours)**
This two-part online course—developed by the certified instructors at UChapter2—is ideal for entry-level architectural or engineering designers, apprentices, tradespersons, project coordinators, estimators, specialty sales reps, or anyone in career transition looking for a practical refresher.

Whether you’re on the jobsite or in the office, it’s a solid first step toward better project collaboration.

Designed to quickly build confidence, this course covers the fundamentals of how to read and understand construction documents. From identifying title block information to reviewing floor plans, elevations, and combing through specification sections, participants will learn how to navigate a full set of drawings and interpret material and construction requirements with clarity.

We will use Bluebeam software in the course delivery, but this is not Bluebeam functionality training.
