New in 2012: VEP Webinar Series for Level 2 Modules

Level 1 of our VEP program was offered as a webinar series in 2011.

In 2012, we'll be offering 7 of the 9 level 2 modules as part of our ongoing VEP webinar series. The schedule is available now. Registration codes will be available after January 1. Check back after then for registration information.

Study Aids Added

We've added study aids for each individual module, which you can now download along with each module and test questions. These study aids are great for individual or group study.

VEP Reference Document

For those that want a complete description of our VEP program, complete with the contents of each module, we've put together a VEP reference document that you can download and share with others.

Two New Modules Added

We're pleased to announce the addition of two new modules to level 2 of the VEP. The new modules are:

  • 2-8: Specialized Risks: Designing for Sustainability and Condo Projects
  • 2-9: Emerging Practice: Building Information Modeling and Integrated Project Delivery

PDFs of the new modules and test questions, as well as an updated answer key, are now available.

Modules Updated with New AIA and EJCDC References

All VEP module and test files were updated to account for the 2007 editions of AIA documents and 2008 editions of EJCDC documents. Please be sure to update any files you may have previously downloaded.

The VEP has become a flexible, self-structured continuing education tool that firms can customize and incorporate into their in-house training curriculum.

VEP Now Self-Study Program

Effective April 1, 2007, Schinnerer will no longer administer the testing and reporting of policyholder participation in the VEP for continuing education purposes.

Background

Our comprehensive reference guide to risk management continues to be a valuable tool and resource for design firms and individuals. For all design professional policyholders, VEP content is provided at no additional cost.
