NOTICE: All class and re-test attendees
are responsible for providing their own class materials, which includes
a current copy of the Documentation Guide, Documentation Appendix and
Workbook. These materials are available for download on the
Class Materials page. No materials will be provided at events.
Documentation certification is required for consultants
to become prequalified with the Department to perform construction
inspection (Phase III) work. Construction Inspection consists of
staking, material testing and inspection, documentation of materials and
quantities, record keeping and enforcement of specifications applicable
to a contractor’s work on construction projects. For a complete list of
requirements for consultant prequalification, visit the
Consultant Prequalification web page.
The purpose of this class is to provide the student with the
ability to document contract quantities in compliance with State and
Federal standards. This class will cover project diary entries, quantity
book preparation, cross-reference system, extra work reports,
measurement and calculation of pay items for pay quantities occurring in
road and bridge plans.
To obtain Documentation certification, one must successfully
pass the test given at the Construction Documentation of Contract
Quantities class. 70% or greater constitutes a passing score and
certification is valid for 4 years. A person certified can retake the
Documentation exam up to 6 months prior to expiration to re-certify
without retaking the class. Once a certificate has expired, the
individual must attend the class to become certified again. It is each
individual's responsibility to re-test prior to expiration and no
notification of expiration will be sent by the Department. No exceptions
will be made.
Individuals who are unsuccessful in obtaining a passing score at
class are allowed to re-test once. If they are not successful after the
re-test attempt to obtain certification, they must re-attend the
Construction Documentation of Contract Quantities class. The Central
Bureau of Construction has several test dates
scheduled throughout each year. Requests for individual test dates will
not be accepted.
