This 15-hour online course is a tutorial designed to help students and professionals prepare for the AIC Associate Constructor''s Examination. (CQE Level 1).

Successful completion of this exam results in the Associate Constructor designation.

This tutorial is not intended to offer a detailed course in any of the areas of specialization. It is only offered as a refresher of certain concepts and principles that can be expected on the AIC CQE Level 1 Examination.  It is not intended to provide an in depth education in the fundamentals of construction technology and construction management.  If during the review of the work it becomes apparent to the student that they lack the required background in the subject, we recommend that they seek additional training in the specific area.

Each section of this course includes a list of reference materials that can be reviewed in detail. Please refer to any of the excellent texts available for a detailed review of the areas of specialization.  Application for AIC CQE (Level 1) assumes that the applicant has competencies, knowledge and skills in various areas of construction technology, business and construction management.
 
As the AIC CQE Level 1 examination is a rigorous test of construction technologies, construction management and business management, we make no explicit or implied guaranty/warranty that a student will successfully pass the AIC examination.

There is a quiz included at the end of each scenario.
