  • Presented by Gerry Bourne, P. Eng., from CodeNext Inc., The goal of this course is to help us realize the importance of Inspecting and Testing the life safety systems in our buildings but at the same time I want us to consider that this applies to many aspects of our building outside of Fire and Life Safety. We need to keep in mind that as time goes on the many components of our buildings need to be re-evaluated and we need to confirm that the original intentions whether it be life safety, accessibility, or inclusion are still being met from a functional, safety, and user-based standpoint. The only way to do this is regular inspection, and understanding the uses and ongoing maintenance of all the things that we spent so much time doing right in the beginning.
