Complimentary preview

Try two real Academy modules for free

If you're a building surveying graduate or apprentice, the Preview gives you 14 days to complete two genuine Academy modules, around an hour in total, and receive a completion certificate. It is the same material used in the full Academy, not cut-down demo content.

Work through the modules in your own time. Access runs for 14 days from signing up, and the certificate is emailed to you when you complete the final module.

The preview is a sample. Full access is the whole library.

The preview is two free modules from the main Academy library, with a short introduction and conclusion module around them. Full access covers the whole library for early-career Building Surveyors, graduates and apprentices, so the foundation tasks normally passed on from memory are there in one place, repeatable for every intake.
