Become a Jack of All Trades

The Construction Inspection program is the study of the adopted California Construction Codes that building inspectors enforce on residential and nonresidential construction projects. The program focuses on technical knowledge of construction installations and proper inspection procedures to ensure that structures are built to comply with minimum code safeguards that protect the life, public welfare, and property of residents. Students learn the inspection skills necessary to pursue a career as a building, plumbing, electrical, or mechanical inspector. Subject areas include the inspection of concrete, masonry and wood buildings, plumbing and mechanical systems, electrical installations and systems, plan reading, soils engineering, disabled access, fire sprinklers, green code requirements, stormwater pollution prevention, and the certification requirements for inspectors in California.
