Hands-On Water Damage, Structural Drying & Mould Remediation Course
Join us in March 2026 for ACRA’s brand-new Newcastle Flood House, delivering an immersive 3-day hands-on training experience.
Participants will witness and take part in every stage of a real flood restoration as the house is flooded and fully dried within the course timeframe. Learn the science and practical application of structural drying, heat drying, moisture detection, and moisture management in a live environment.
The course also includes mould investigation and remediation training, providing the skills and confidence to manage challenging restoration projects.
This practical, industry-led training combines theory and real-world application, giving you the knowledge, hands-on experience, and confidence to apply correct processes on the job.
