Education & Certification

Our team of code educators provides a wide variety of code training at various national and regional events, as well as various on-line classes. The diverse group of educators have expertise in every code book, as well as experience with common construction practices and code development history. This allows us to provide code insights that have led to our team continually being awarded with education awards, such as the 2018 Educator of the Year award presented by ICC to our Colorado Regional education team.
