Total Station for Construction - CITB Assured (GET3407) | Liverpool

Get hands-on training in surveying and setting out with this practical, CITB Assured course. Ideal for site engineers requiring hands-on training, you’ll learn to operate a modern Total Station confidently and accurately from the installation of Control to Setting Out and Site Checks.

Taught by experienced KOREC Trainers, the course covers:

· Equipment setup and calibration

· Establishing control networks

· Topographical data collection

· Setting out using coordinates

By the end, you’ll have the practical knowledge and confidence to handle surveying and setting out tasks commonly performed using a Total Station.

CITB course certificate provided upon successful completion of the course learning outcomes.

Learning Outcomes (CITB)

· Set up the total station over a point

· Carry out relevant calibration checks

· List the possible sources of error when using a total station

· List techniques for improving and checking your accuracy and precision

· View, edit, add, and delete data
