For a Long, Safe Life

How can we ensure that buildings continue to meet our original safety standards as they are occupied and altered by different users over the years?

The only way is through regular inspection, testing, and maintenance. In this 1.75 hour Precision course, we'll walk through the codes, responsibilities and requirements that apply to the inspection and testing of life safety systems in our buildings.

"Enjoyed the presentations. Lots of useful information for building owners and inspectors. Inspection documents can be very confusing and this opened my eyes to some of the line items I skim over."
