“This is the perfect course to help focus on the practical aspect of the job, fast tracking & understanding the backbone of QS, learning how to do everyday tasks/demands of a QS and learning the latest industry standards.

The super fast response to questions & test paper grading from my tutor was a real motivator.”

“The course material itself is well done. There is great use of flowcharts and excel spreadsheets to help with the visualisation of data particularly cash flow forecasting, critical pathways of a project and the kind/nature of on-site costs that are incurred during a construction project. I quite enjoyed learning about the 4Ps, tendering, the nature of construction contracts adopted by different players in the industry, final accounts, payment schedules, variations to a contract and breaking down estimates for a particular project.”

“This course has provided me with a CV refresh and qualification as I pivot from on-site project management to office-based estimating due to injury. I believe the curriculum enables employers to be confident graduates are job ready and I look forward to using my skills as a construction estimator.”

“This Quantity Surveying course was the perfect thing for me to do as it was very flexible and I could work on it at my own pace and time over as many months as I wanted.

“The course was very informative and it gave more clarity based around areas that I wanted more understanding around in my role. Course gave a good understanding around construction contracts which was relevant in my line of work.”

“As a working professional looking to expand my skill set, I enrolled in the NZES course, and I am pleased with my experience. The course material is well organised, covering all the key concepts and practical techniques required for success in the field. The main benifit for me was my tutor, I had some specific questions, some of which weren’t even in the course, and he was happy to help. I feel more equipped and confident in my abilities, thanks again.”

“This aspect of the course is unique in itself. I have never had an experience like it, where I was personally given a tutor to help me through the program. The tutor was a professional in his field, very experienced but also humble and down to earth”…

“I Fully enjoyed completing this course! My tutor was resourceful, respectful, supportive, and responded quickly. I have learnt so much. Totally recommend this course!”

As an engineer who recently completed the NZES course, I found one of the most worthwhile aspects of undertaking the course was the connections I made and the industry peers I met. This has given me a broader networking scope and valuable new contacts within the industry and my locality.

“I cannot recommend NZES enough for anyone looking to start a career in quantity surveying and estimating. The course material is comprehensive and the instructors are knowledgeable and passionate about their subject matter. The interactive exercises and interactive course material made the learning experience engaging. My tutor went above and beyond. I have acquired a strong foundation in the key concepts and practical aspects of QS”

“I recently completed the NZES online course and I have to say, the personal tutoring aspect was what truly set it apart. The instructors were available at all times to answer my questions and provide guidance, and this made all the difference in my learning experience. The personal attention and support I received was invaluable and allowed me to truly understand the material and grasp the concepts.”

“We put a whole team through NZES. We were really impressed. It was comprehensive but also fit around our work. Everyone gained something from it. Really friendly staff and super helpful”
