Certified Moisture Control & Building Science Technician – Level 1- 28th to 29th August 2025

Moisture and ventilation issues are the hidden threats undermining the health and durability of our buildings. This 2-day, hands-on certification course equips restoration professionals, inspectors, and facility managers with the foundational knowledge and field-ready tools to diagnose, manage, and prevent moisture-related damage and indoor air quality (IAQ) failures.

🔍 What You’ll Learn:
✅ Moisture movement and building envelope dynamics – Understand how moisture travels through materials and air barriers, and how this affects structural integrity and IAQ.
✅ Ventilation strategies and system performance – Learn how mechanical and passive ventilation systems contribute to moisture control and occupant health.
✅ Diagnosis of moisture and ventilation failures – Identify common failure points in both residential and commercial buildings, from roof to subfloor.
✅ Use of diagnostic tools and continuous monitoring – Gain hands-on experience with moisture meters, thermal imaging, and long-life moisture sensors designed for real-time monitoring in commercial and residential buildings.
✅ Building technology and innovation – Explore emerging technologies for moisture detection, smart ventilation, and data-driven maintenance to prevent building envelope failure.
✅ Stack effect, condensation risks, and fenestration (windows) – Understand how pressure differences, glazing types, and poor window installation impact moisture levels and indoor air conditions.
✅ Codes and compliance – Review local (Australian) and international standards related to moisture control, ventilation, and IAQ.
✅ Testing methodologies – Learn field and laboratory testing methods aligned with IICRC, ASTM, ISO, and NCC standards to ensure accurate diagnostics and defensible reporting.
✅ Prevention strategies – Develop techniques to reduce long-term damage, occupant complaints, and costly remediation by designing effective moisture management plans
