Preparing your case: Documentation, Report Writing and Evidence (Online)

Working as a Code Enforcement Official, Building Official, Plans Examiner or Permit Technician comes with a lot of responsibility. Daily you will encounter situations that require documentation of your interactions, actions, and results. Each case will be unique and require different steps and methods to document it from start to finish. If any steps are missed it weakens the case and the credibility of the staff and jurisdiction.

From housing inspections and property maintenance cases to permit requests and plan submittals, diligent attention to the process of documentation is needed.

This class will go over the procedures, processes and best practices for maintaining professional documentation, writing reports and documenting evidence for housing inspections, code enforcement cases, and building permit/plan review submittals with the assumption that someday the information will be needed at a hearing, appeal or court proceeding.
