College Credit
STPonline is also offered for college credit at San Diego State University as the Certificate In Construction Supervision.
You must register at SDSU to obtain the college credits. AGC chapters across the United States
are offering these same classes courses as the Supervisory Training Program.
All Classes Are Online
All classes in the program consist of one class each week during the 10 week
semester. Students are not required to attend class at specific times but there will
be a certain amount of work to be done each week.
Certificates Awarded
The Certificate in Construction Supervision program incorporates the
AGC's Supervisory Training program as well as other current information about the subject
at hand. Students will receive an AGC certificate of completion
and a
letter grade from San
Diego State University (SDSU) upon the completion of each course in the series.
Upon completion of all 9 classes in the series, students will receive a
Certificate

certificate of completion for each course.
Completion of the Certificate in Construction Supervision is based upon successful
completion of 9 of the 9 courses in the Construction Supervision series.
The AGC requires all 9 classes to be completed to receive their
certification.

Other teachers within this program are vice presidents, chief estimators, senior
project managers, senior superintendents and company owners who are dealing with the
subject matter of their class every day on a professional basis. STP
instructors have completed the STPonline series as students before being
invited to teach.
Our Students
Our students come from all over the country, all over the world and
from multiple positions in the construction industry. Bringing online classes with current information into the home is
exciting and useful for the students. There is no more convenient way to take
college courses!
Students in this program must take charge of their own education. Since there are
no required class times, students must have the self-discipline to make sure they do the
class work and satisfy weekly participation requirements. Class participation is asynchronous
and will occur in the form of bulletin board postings.
These classes are for working adults who want to take charge of their future and their
careers.
