THE FULL BOARD AT CONSTRUCTIQ UNIVERSITY

14 trades. Every one of them a live estimating class, 1.5 hours a week, taught by me - not a recording, not somebody else's slideshow.

THE PART PEOPLE ASK ME ABOUT MOST:
You do not have to wait for a start date. A new class begins every single week, so there are always new students and returning students in the room. New students get the intro while the rest work their assignment. You walk in at Week 1 whenever Week 1 is for you.

You leave with takeoff sheets, live estimating templates, and a completed bid you can show a customer.
