Assessor Lite Training

“Assessor Lite” training is conducted over two half day sessions where you will be working through a project of your own to a “certification” level to ensure you are really up to speed.

Depending on your location and attendee numbers we can arrange to deliver the training at your premises and or a mix of in-house and online for organisations with offices in different locations.

Green Star Professional and Australian Institute of Architects CPD points can be also obtained for attendance.
