There is a series of five online courses presented by the ASPE Educational Board headed up by former Chapter Six member, Kevin Miller. These courses include: blueprint reading, construction materials and processes, and three consecutive courses in estimating. This sounds like a great opportunity for new estimators, project engineers, administrators and anyone else who wants to gain more knowledge in construction estimating.
