Great and very professional instructor!
This course taught me to understand the meaning of symbols on plans to have more control over details and elevations. This allowed me to gain more experience. Thank you very much! The course was very interesting.
I know it's kind of hard to assess each student's background and tailor the course to their needs, but you guys tackle it awesomely. Some of us don't have degrees, just field experiences, and the course was thoughtfully designed.
My instructor, David Nguyen, was prompt in email replies. I was very impressed with that. Any questions I had were taken care of within an hour. Great job.
Great course and great content!
The instructor kept me engaged with the material and pointed out key details multiple times.
I really appreciate the details and work that was put into these videos and the course. I will take these skills and improve on the aspects I need to move forward in my job.
Great experience! I feel like it is well delivered. Over all good class and good communication.
The video instructor was thorough without being monotonous. Knowledgeable and easy to listen to (@ 1.25 speed). I enjoyed his review of this project. :)
The instructor did a good job!!!
Before starting this program, I only had a little knowledge of reading blueprints. Now that I have taken the course, I feel more confident when reading blueprints.
Overall, I'm very happy with the course, and I learned more than expected. The pace of the course is very reasonable for someone working full-time.
Overall, I loved the course.
I really enjoyed the online class. I found it very engaging and gained several valuable insights that I can apply to my work.
I did enjoy doing the course. The videos were perfect. They did not go too fast that I would miss any information.
I enjoyed your course to help me further my current job.
Excellent job!
This course helped me out. The instructor explained all the sections very well.
This was a very helpful course, and I would recommend anyone in the construction industry to take it.
Great information and great course for someone who had only some blueprint knowledge. Thank you!
I think it was well structured. Some of the information did feel like it was repeated constantly throughout the topics, like how to read the detail symbol so you know what page to go to, but I get why. It's important, and that helps reinforce the learning. Other than that, I have no complaints. This was a great intro to blueprints for me, and it's made me very excited to begin the commercial side of the course. Instructor replied to me right away when I asked a question and was very professional and polite. Great instructor.
It's been a pleasure and an enjoyment to gain, learn, and obtain this invaluable knowledge afforded and provided to me through this course!
I thought the instructor videos were very well done and timed well. I found them engaging and informative without getting dry or boring. I would highly recommend this course even for experienced contractors to fill any gaps they may have in their training or knowledge.
Loved this course and learned a lot.
The course layout was easy to follow and allowed you to build off of the information you just learned. It doesn't skip around.
I really have nothing extra to add because the quality of the course is top-notch in my opinion.
The instructor was very knowledgeable and easy to follow through the course.
I thoroughly enjoyed the course and its step-by-step process. It was interesting to see what technology is being used and how it is used to create blueprints now, since the last time I took a drafting class was in high school. I'm now interested in how to use Revit as a layman draftsman.
Sufficient information and testing.
Loved to learn a little more. Loved my instructor too, he always helped me.
The Blueprint Residential Course was very adequate for understanding residential drawings, and it wasn’t passive or inactive because the instructor responded clearly to all questions asked.
This course was fun to go through! I feel like I learned so much. The way it was laid out and presented made it easy to follow and understand
Very satisfied with this course.
Thanks for a great course! I learned a lot!
Very satisfied with the course.
It was a great course that hit every topic that I had concerns with.
I found it very good and timely for expanding my knowledge in plans; the teacher quickly addressed my questions, just grateful.
This class is a 5 out of 5. I enjoyed the thorough breakdowns for each topic paired with videos that even further helped me understand the topic. The videos were thorough, and they had fantastic examples to learn from. As a new junior estimator with no prior experience reading blueprints, this class enabled me to fly through blueprints picking up what I knew I needed rather than fumbling through hoping I find what I need.
This was a really good course for me. I’m an office manager for a small commercial construction company, and I see drawings for different jobs, but I don’t have much to do with them. I also never really thought about what I was looking at. It’s really very interesting. The course is very clear, to the point, and broken into enough small bites that you cannot become overwhelmed.
The course was well thought out, had a lot of relevant information. I found the site to be easy to navigate. The reference materials were complete and had all of the information needed. I have 30 years in the construction industry, 23 in construction management. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount that I was able to learn from this course. I am continuing my education, getting certifications to bolster my field experience. I will definitely be enrolling in more courses through the VDC Institute.
I appreciated the format of the course and the attention to detail the instructor demonstrated. The material is presented in a way that's easy to understand! Every detail is broken down and after, you get an explanation on why it is important. The quizzes make you recall the information you just learned so it's more likely to stick!
Completing this course has been an incredibly valuable experience for me. The course provided a clear, in depth understanding of commercial blueprints and construction documentation. The lessons were well-structured and easy to follow, making it an excellent resource for anyone looking to enter or advance in this industry. This course has given me confidence and knowledge to excel in my career, and I highly recommend it to anyone serious about improving their blueprint reading skills. This Blueprint Reading Certification was a game changer for me - it gave the knowledge and confidence to understand commercial drawings and apply them on the job. It's invaluable course for anyone looking to grow in the construction industry.
This was a great course. It was nice and short and I did learn a good amount of new information. Everything was explained clearly and in a way that was easy to understand. The information provided was extremely valuable and practical for real-world use. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to strengthen their estimating skills.
The course was comprehensive and very detailed, making it easy to follow and apply to real-world situations. The instructor was knowledgeable, clear, and engaging, which made the learning experience even better. Overall, it gave me a strong foundation in blueprint reading for commercial construction. I highly recommend it to anyone wanting a strong foundation in commercial construction.
It was a very interesting course that taught me a ton. I like how in depth it went with all of the subjects. I'm really happy with the course. Even though my learning style doesn't really match the format of this course, I still walked away with a bunch of knowledge on commercial blueprints! I would definitely recommend this course to anyone interested in construction.
I definitely learned a ton about reading blueprints for residential projects, and it is quickly becoming useful in my job. I would definitely recommend this course for people that want to deepen their knowledge about blueprints and residential or commercial projects!
I think the Courses are great, its been a huge confidence booster. I love the fact that it's self-paced. As Someone who is new to the construction industry, VDCI has given me a solid foundation and understanding of blueprint reading. I feel that I can instantly apply what I have learned to the field. This program has boosted my knowledge as well as my confidence. I look forward to taking other courses, as I have been quite pleased with my first experience.
I highly recommend this to anyone that is getting into a field where they will need to know how to read and interpret drawings and blueprints. Even if someone has some experience with it already, more than likely they will still be able to take away some new knowledge. The courses were very straight forward and to the point. I have zero experience with anything residential but going forward I feel I have a much better knowledge base and more confidence. I was able to learn a lot and I know I will be able to apply it to my current job and become an even more valuable employee.
After taking the Blueprint Reading Course, I feel confident in starting a new career in sales in the construction industry. Very good informative class for someone who is new to blueprint reading.
The experience was eye opening and showed me that my current skill set is at a higher, perceptive, leadership level than what the world portrays or I even imagined. I look forward to taking further classes to continue towards the path of developing, designing, and creating high-rise, condominium complexes. I also deeply appreciated my professor staying on top of my progress and notifying me when I was falling behind. Deep respects.
