Our Building Officials Fundamentals Program is intended to help you prepare for the building official role at a municipal level. This building officials program is best suited for those with technical backgrounds (construction, architectural technology, engineering technology, the trades) but is also appropriate for those from a number of other disciplines that municipalities need to regulate buildings (planning, business, law, environmental studies, communications, geoscience, mathematics, economics).
