Foundations of Building Surveying 

The Foundations of Building Surveying programme is designed with building managers to take newer staff to Res 1 competency more quickly.

It also provides the critical building controls context for starters who already have a Regulation 18 qualification, while preparing other newer staff for the demands of the Diploma of Building Surveying.  For a list of Regulation 18 qualifications, please click here.

The programme gets newer staff upskilled and on-board more quickly, helping attract, retain and develop staff to industry requirements.

The fourteen courses are designed to cover certain key performance requirements of Res 1 competency and work alongside the learner’s practical experience in a BCA.

Held online, the programme supports cost-effectiveness, national coverage and provides flexibility between a learner’s time in study and on the job.

“I have noticed a big difference in the staff who have just completed the BOINZ programme with their processing and inspection progress…I believe that they are steps ahead of where I had expected them to be in their short time they have been within the BCA….I fully back the course and have no hesitation in recommending this to other BCAs.”

Richard Knudsen, Team Leader Building, Buller DC.

“The programme put my three BCOs well ahead of where they would otherwise have been…The successful completion of this programme has resulted in their competency assessments (post-graduation) achieving full Res 1 processing with one of them achieving full competence in Res 1 inspections as well.”

Jayson Ellis, Building control Manager, Timaru DC
