About CTI

Dear Fellow Building and Life Safety Colleagues:

Welcome to the CALBO Training Institute (CTI) webpage. CTI is the educational branch of California Building Officials (CALBO), striving to be your first choice in quality, informative, and innovative educational providers. It is our goal to furnish you with the tools you need to keep active and up-to-date on code changes and amendments, new technology, and advanced thinking on issues related to our industry, all the while, being respectful of costs related to your budget.

CTI is able to bring you new and refreshed programs within the traditional setting of the Education Weeks in both Northern and Southern California, as well as afford you the opportunity and flexibility to schedule independent offerings. This year, the CTI Commission and staff are working to develop classes that are not only technically insightful and proficient, but provide real life experiences that we encounter on a day-to-day basis. We have set in motion the cultivation of new and progressively advanced curriculum that is geared towards the development and improvement of the individual staff member's mastery and advancement in the profession of building administration, inspection, plan review, and code enforcement.

Our Instructors are experts in their respective fields. These talented and gifted individuals love to share their experiences, passion, and technical prowess with all students and we are grateful for their willingness and sacrifice to serve CALBO.

Please take the opportunity to review the class offerings on our online Course Calendar on a regular basis and look for the classes that interest you or you feel would be of benefit to members of your staff.

If you have a specific request, ideas for the development of a class, would like to be an Instructor, or just need help with a question feel free to contact myself, Bob Latz, at bobl@csgengr.com or Samantha Renfro at srenfo@calbo.org.
