Are you interested in determining what influences manufacturing costs the most, such as time, supplies, and labour? Then this is the perfect package for you. With 14 courses bundled together, you will learn to make estimations and read blueprints and technical documentation.

An estimator's job requires using the talents of engineers, architects, clients, and builders together. Estimators examine production processes to estimate how much time, money, and staffing a project will take. Their estimations consider various aspects affecting costs and earnings, such as material waste, inclement weather, and shipment delays.

Cost estimators in the building industry utilise software that mimics the construction process to examine the financial implications of various design options. When comparing the prices of similar projects, they frequently use databases and their archives.

The career-focused courses in this Estimation: Estimator bundle are as follows:

  • Course 01: Construction Cost Estimation at QLS Level 5
  • Course 02: Construction Estimation using RSMeans Course
  • Course 03: Introduction to Xactimate: Construction Cost Estimation
  • Course 04: Construction Management
  • Course 05: Building Surveyor Training
  • Course 06: Land Surveying
  • Course 07: Construction Industry Scheme (CIS)
  • Course 08: LEED V4 - Building Design and Construction
  • Course 09: RIDDOR Training
  • Course 10: CAD Designer Training
  • Course 11: Workplace Health and Safety Diploma
  • Course 12: Double Your Productivity
  • Course 13: Find Your Life Purpose and Maximise Your Impact
  • Course 14: Certificate in CV Writing and Interview Skills

A cost estimator's job in manufacturing is to help the company plan for the cost of developing a new product. Everything from the initial investment in raw materials and labour to the final cost of distributing the finished items is factored in here. Another cost estimator is employed on construction sites to perform a similar function for larger projects like apartment buildings, skyscrapers, and bridges.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
