Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing (MEP) Print Reading - September 30 through November 1 - Hybrid Online (Live Instructor & Self-Paced)

The Fundamentals Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing (MEP) Commercial Building Print Reading Course is the follow up course to the prerequisite Commercial Print Reading Fundamentals Course. This is also a hybrid course that allows you to complete, at your own pace, reading assignments, on-line courses, and workbook exercises during the week (approximately 3-4 hours per week), and connect LIVE weekly with the Instructor, and other learners for a 1 ½ hour “Live Learning Lab” to review workbook answers and ask questions.

This course builds upon the foundation of the fundamentals course by further understanding mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems. Skills learned in this course will be utilized throughout your construction career and include reading and understanding different types of heating and cooling systems, HVAC symbols, electrical terms, electrical schedules, electrical drawing types, plumbing systems, plumbing fixtures, plumbing diagrams and you will be able to explain the three stages of plumbing installation.

The text was written, and the course is taught by experienced commercial construction professionals and utilizes an online learning platform that organizes materials and content that is available two (2) years after you complete the course.

• Project / Field Engineers
• Assistant / Area Superintendents
• Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, Fire Sprinkler and Controls Craft Workers that are early in their construction career.
• Craft Workers that want to better understand Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP) systems so they can effectively coordinate their work with the MEP trades.
