Calling Alabama and South Carolina-based architects, engineers, and certified building inspectors! Interested in learning how to help your community post-disaster?
The Safety-Assessment Program (SAP) training provides architects, engineers, and building inspectors with the knowledge to provide evaluations of facilities and buildings in the aftermath of disaster. Registered building officials are invited and encouraged to attend the training as they are eligible to perform post-disaster assessments after successfully completing SAP training as certified Building Evaluators. This is a fantastic opportunity for local building inspectors to have an opportunity to interact with and get to know licensed design professionals who they can call on post-disaster to assist in providing building safety assessments.
In this two half-day, virtual, all-hazards, training course, the AIA SAP instructor will share personal experiences from the field and will walk attendees through interactive case studies. Attendees will understand chain of command in declared disasters and safety precautions to deploy into the field.
After successfully completing AIA's SAP training, eligible individuals will earn a California-issued registration ID card. This nationally recognized certification is often required training for volunteer building safety evaluators nationwide. This course costs $99 for AIA members and $149 for non-members. This course awards 6.5 LUs / HSW.
