Owner Builder Blog

New Owner Builder Resources and New Look Site

12/6/2019

10 Comments

 

Hello to all our owner builder students and welcome to the latest blog.

We have been working hard behind the scenes to make certain each of our owner builders are equipped in the most appropriate way to assist them to successfully manage their owner builder projects.

With that in mind, it is time to let each of you know that in late July, we will introduce a new website with many enhancements and an up to date look and feel that will make your learning experience even more enjoyable.

The site will give you easy access to tools and information that can be used to help you administer your owner builder project and to track progress and cost.

Each of these tools will be available to our owner builder course students free of charge as a complete resource set or individually accessible through a simple download.

Of course, we have ensured each of the resources are available to use across multiple platforms and operating systems and will allow delivery across mobile devices as well.

Many of the owner builder resources will be best used as physical hard copies, however we are working with our developers to deliver an app that can be completed online or digitally and retained as electronic copies. That work may take a few more months, but it is coming and as for all our resources they will remain available to all of our owner builder customers for many years to come.

Just a few of the owner builder administrative tools we are working on are new project management templates for scheduling, window and door schedules, estimating sheets, insurance and contractor register along with construction safety plans.

Safety of course remains a key focus for our owner builders and we are working on new courseware that will be available free of charge to our owner builder students.
If you have any questions or would like to suggest an administrative form, schedule or register that you would like to see developed, then please let us know!
 
Best Regards and Happy Owner Building

I have not used the blog much. You must organise the homepage to be user friendly.
My best wishes

I agree with both Trent and R Shanmugananthan fine turning is needed however I think with a few tweaks it will be more user friendly.

Nice to hear. Not being computer savvy [being a old bloke], I find the site a little had to navigate. To give you an example, I do not have Mirosoft word on this computer, so I was unable to fill out the stat dec with word.

I am commenting to show engagement, but I am wondering why this is necessary as the most recent post I can see is from over a year ago. PS I am doing this course only becuase my husband who has all the relevant qualifications is not on the house deed. :(
