| Abstract | Digital technology changes how contractors and inspectors perform their work. At the same time, the construction workforce is losing experience and skill as a large wave of workers retires. Agencies can train inspectors and transfer institutional knowledge with a mentor-led, blended-learning approach. Blended learning uses guided self-study through documents and digital media. Agencies can invest in digital content that serves as job aids and online, on-demand training. Formal mentors would guide training, evaluate inspectors’ progress, and provide expertise through remote support. |
