Identify the concepts related to quality in construction works and laboratories and the ways of working that try to minimize failures” 

Buildings are built to have a long service life, so when carrying out the relevant quality control, any type of error, whether in the materials or in the structure as such, should not be overlooked. The same applies to the laboratories that test the materials that will be used later in any construction project.

This makes it essential for engineers to know these standards for their application and compliance in their field of work. Therefore, the postgraduate certificate in Building Quality Management and ISO 17025 Laboratory Accreditation will address this and other topics of interest to future graduates.

In the Quality Control module, first of all, the necessary information will be presented in order to gain in-depth knowledge of the principles of quality on site, the map of participants and agents related to quality control on a construction site. Likewise, special attention will be given to the criteria of acceptance and rejection in the reception of the materials treated, and the methods for verifying the degree of quality obtained in the process of carrying out construction work.  At the same time, quality management systems, quality manuals and quality plans in any area of the construction sector will be analyzed in detail.

As the course progresses, the requirements of ISO 17025 will be covered in more depth. In addition, students will have the opportunity to learn about the relevant aspects of the testing and calibration laboratory including the requirements and aspects necessary to achieve accreditation according to the criteria established by the 17025 standard. This is with the objective to carry out work in a planned and systematic manner in the areas of management and quality control, in order to achieve customer satisfaction.

With a 100% online Postgraduate Certificate students will be able to study comfortably, wherever and whenever they want. All you need is a device with internet access to take your career one step further. A modality according to the current times with all the guarantees to position the engineer in a highly demanded sector.
