Introduction
The
American Society of Professional Estimators (ASPE) has
been certifying construction estimators for over thirty
years, since 1976. The program is well tested.
ASPE
certified estimators work at hundreds of construction
companies, architectural and consulting firms across the
United States and Internationally.
While
there are other certification programs in the construction
industry, the ASPE program is the only one that tests
the construction estimator’s construction knowledge
and estimating skills.
The
reason the industry holds the ASPE Certification and designation
“CPE” in such high regard is simply because
it is not for the inexperienced estimator. The minimum
experience required is 5 years as an estimator.
