This qualification supports the Fire Protection and Building sectors by developing skilled inspectors of passive fire systems in both new and existing buildings.
Graduates will be able to work independently to verify that installations meet the requirements of the New Zealand Building Act, Building Code, and relevant regulations. These inspectors—such as Independent Qualified Persons (IQPs)—play a vital role in making sure systems are up to standard and compliant with Building Consents and Compliance Schedules.
Recently refreshed in collaboration with industry, this qualification now includes:
• Two strand options – Construction Monitoring or Routine Compliance Inspections
• Redeveloped learning resources
• Updated assessment materials.
