Senior-Level Residential Estimating for Examiners
Who Should Attend
This one-week course is designed for the experienced claim examiner or supervisor who needs to be updated on estimating system techniques, complex structural losses, reinspection processes and vendor relationships.
Prerequisite
Candidates must be experienced in generating automated estimates, have completed a property damage estimating course, and have a minimum of two years of field or comparable experience.
Course Content
This one-week class begins with a proficiency exercise to determine the skill base so the course can be tailored to address content. Scoping and estimating exercises are discussed and assigned on structural components, roofing, electrical, HVAC, plumbing, and flooring. Other special subjects such as older homes and high value dwellings are addressed and discussed. Attendees prepare automated estimates on the latest versions of electronic estimating software offered at Vale National.
As a senior-level course, many in-class discussions are spontaneously fielded to examine and evaluate some of the challenging topics encountered during structural damage estimating.
Course Benefits
Successful completion of this course will give attendees the skills to scope and electronically generate estimates involving complex damages on residential structures and have the confidence to demonstrate that knowledge.
