This is an easy way to see what is inside the online classes. Classes are 10 weeks each with online access 24/7. Budget 5 hours per week to complete course work. A certificate of completion will be issued upon course completion for STP classes. All 6 STP classes must be completed for the AGC STP Certification. The 100 series courses include blueprint reading\, estimating\, materials\, and civil courses. The 200 series courses focus on the construction supervisory training program. The 300 series focuses on green construction\, project management\, and construction law. Below is some information on each course offered (not all classes are offered each session). Please contact admin@agcfla.com if you would like more information on any course.100 SERIES: ESTIMATING\, BLUEPRINTS\, PROCESSES\, EQUIPMENT\, AND CIVIL SITEWORK COURSESESTIMATING & BLUEPRINT READING 103 Construction Blueprint ReadingRead architectural\, structural\, civil\, mechanical and electrical blueprints. Practice looking up information and solving common construction problems by reading the blueprints.105 Estimating and Bidding 1The first of two hands-on detailed estimating courses in which students learn how to estimate general conditions\, site work\, excavation\, concrete and masonry. Be sure to look over the prerequisites for this class here.106 Estimating and Bidding 2The second course features hands-on estimating and quantity take off activities associated with Metals\, Wood\, Doors and Windows\, Finishes\, Electrical\, and Mechanical Estimating. You may take Estimating and Bidding 1 and 2 in any order.MATERIALS & EQUIPMENT107 Construction Materials and ProcessesDevelop foundational knowledge of construction materials and processes that utilize concrete\, brick and CMU\, metals\, wood products\, roofing\, and more. Understand and report back on how materials and processes function in green construction. An overall construction system will be covered each week. Expand your studies to include materials and processes which are normally encountered by the student in his/her work place.108 Construction Equipment and MethodsThe course will introduce students to civil construction plans\, determining earthwork quantities\, equipment economics and utilization\, equipment production rates\, fundamentals of earthmoving and excavating\, loading and hauling equipment.109 Practical Applications of Civil Sitework The 109 Practical Applications of Heavy Civil Construction is a fundamental construction education and training course that focuses on understanding heavy civil construction methods\, procedures and techniques.This includes site preparation and grading\, excavation\, backfill\, compaction\, trenching\, paving\, and dewatering. Discussions on the proper methods of determining earthwork quantities\, estimating civil construction costs and safety implications will take place throughout the course to further advance students' understanding of the course material as they study building and construction online300 SERIES: PROJECT MANAGEMENT\, BUILDING GREEN BUILDINGS\, AND CONSTRUCTION LAW308 Construction Project ManagementThe purpose of this 308 Construction Project Management is one of many construction management classes online that provide a framework for understanding the project manager's roles\, responsibilities\, processes and procedures. Students will learn the stages of the project\, dispute resolution\, project financing\, feasibility\, bidding and contracting. Students will learn about cost and risk control as well as developing and applying policies and procedures. Learning and fully taking in this material will prepare students for all of the other project management construction online courses we offer.310 Practical Application of Construction LawThe purpose of the 310 Practical Applications of Construction Law online course is to provide a framework for understanding the legal environment in which construction takes place\, an essential piece of knowledge in our construction management certificate programs. Students will learn the stages of contracts\, how to avoid litigation\, methods to protect yourself/ your company in a litigious society\, understand the legal liability of construction professionals\, avoid disputes using clauses\, and be more informed when navigating the legality of the jobsite.
