This study companion provides practical
learning assignments for independent study of the
provisions of the 2009
International Residential Code (IRC ®).
The independent study format
affords a method for the student to complete the program in
an unregulated time period.
Progressing through the workbook, the
learner can measure his or her level of knowledge by
using the exercises and quizzes provided for each
study session.
The workbook is also valuable for
instructor-led programs. In jurisdictional training
sessions, community college classes, vocational
training programs and other structured
educational offerings, the study guide and the IRC
can be the basis for classroom instruction.
All study sessions begin with a general
learning objective specific to the session, the specific
code sections or chapter under consideration and a
list of questions summarizing the key points
of study. Each session addresses selected topics from
the IRC and includes code text, a
commentary on the code provisions, illustrations
representing the provisions under discussion
and multiple choice questions that can be used to
evaluate the student’s knowledge. |
