Construction projects are guided by more than drawings. They rely on documents that shape bidding, scheduling, contracts, and cost control.

NEF’s Construction Document Technician (CDT) Certification provides an overview of the documents needed to construct a building, including how they are used to prepare project bids and schedules.

Whether you are new to construction or want to strengthen your industry knowledge, explore the CDT Certification and learn how to get started.
