It is also prerequisite to all the other CSC education courses.The PCD course is a prerequisite for the Certified Technical Representative (CTR),Certified Construction Contract Administrator (CCCA) and Certified Specification Practitioner (CSP) designations from CSC. Successful completion of the PCD may be credited toward the experience component requirements for the Registered Specification Writer (RSW) designation.The course is designed for individuals involved in the construction industry, who at any point in their career are required to produce, read, supply products for, or rely on, the project manual/specification. In other words, it is designed for anyone in construction, whether they work as a designer, consultant, contractor or supplier.The focus is to emphasize the relationship that exists between specifications and drawings, and the role of the industry participants. Contract documents and the project manual have an intrinsic relationship with each other, with standard pre-printed contract documents, and with associated documents; this course explains these relationships.Designed for convenience and ease of understanding, PCD offers a user-friendly format, ensuring that you can absorb and apply newfound knowledge effectively. Join us on this transformative journey and pave the way for your success in construction documentation and beyond.Module:IntroductionConstruction Process: Players and Roles; Owner Expectations; Budget Process; Project Phases; and the Bidding ProcessProduction of Construction Documents: The Project Manual; Format Documents; Specifying Methods; Language and Style; Specification Writing, Editing and Co-ordination; and Document InterpretationForms of Contract: Contract DeliveryCodes and Standards: Codes and Code Content; Standards and Testing Agencies; Zoning By-Laws and Permits; and Environmental issuesRisk Management Issues: Risk and LiabilityLegal Issues: Legal Issues; and Contract Law and Court DecisionsBuilding Science: Basic Building Principles; Product Evaluation and Selection; Sustainability Issues; and Diagnostic Methods, Non-Destructive TestingContract Administration: Authority of the Contract Administrator; Time Management; Submittals, Alternatives and Substitutions; Changes in the Work; The Commissioning Process; and Performance, Termination and Dispute ResolutionsCommunications: Communications and Projects on the InternetTrends in the Construction Industry: The History of Standardizing Construction Information; New Initiatives in Standardization; and Professional Development
