We believe that by sharing our knowledge, we can help shape the future of the industry, ensuring that our communities are safe and well-protected.
That’s why we’re proud to collaborate with Kilo Lima Code School, an innovative platform dedicated to the development of new talent in the Fire and Building Code community. Through this collaboration, we aim to foster a supportive learning environment, where we can exchange insights and grow alongside like-minded professionals. We view education not just as a responsibility, but as an opportunity to strengthen the industry as a whole.
As our Project Engineer Melinda Amador, puts it:
“The more we can all collaborate and unpack together the life safety aspects of the Codes, the safer our built spaces will be for all Canadians.”
In addition to our work with Kilo Lima, we offer a variety of resources and training courses that cater to both new and experienced professionals. Whether you're starting out or looking to deepen your knowledge of Fire and Building Codes, our team is here to support your journey. We understand the importance of fostering well-rounded professionals who not only possess technical expertise but also a deep understanding of how Codes impact the future of our cities and spaces.

Things I think about: How do we attract and develop new talent? Why would students be interested in a career in Building Code? How do we motivate and retain top talent with new and exciting projects and initiatives?" - Gerry Bourne, Partner.
As the world continues to change rapidly, the Fire and Building Code industry plays a crucial role in shaping the future of our cities. We’re excited to be part of this journey, helping build safer, smarter communities.
