same 3rd year of 5 years part time course. First 2 years were boring as hell as I already knew what we were learing as I done it at college. Most people in my course neva did construction course at college but did like business or science so they cover the basics first

I been in the industry for 5 years working and studying and find I can demand the pay of a project QS (which I do now for my company) as I have a decent background and kick ass CV. Who do you work for?? Im moving from Van Oord a Marine contractor to Balfour Beatty in Hindhead
