SUMMARY:Basic Estimating Class
DESCRIPTION:This three-day course focuses on understanding the cost components of electrical estimating\, instilling industry best practices\, all while developing a sound estimating process. Topics are presented in a lecture format followed by hand-on estimating exercises to reinforce the principles learned.
