WHAT IS CDT (CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS TECHNOLOGIST)?
This certification provides a comprehensive program of study for anyone seeking to enhance and demonstrate knowledge of writing, interpreting, enforcing and managing construction documents.
The CDT exam is the foundational course for anyone who works in the built environment. Getting your CDT certification means that you understand how a project unfolds from conception to delivery, roles and responsibilities of the project team and all of the contract documentation involved.
WHO SHOULD JOIN THE BOOT CAMP?
This two-part boot camp is useful for anyone in the A/E/C industry who is interested in understanding the process, roles/responsibilities, and project delivery from cradle to grave. This class is also beneficial as an additional resource to the textbook for preparing for the CDT exam.
You do not need to be a CSI member to register for the boot camp.
