“With over 15 years in construction, I learned many skills through personal effort without a clear method, which sometimes caused uncertainty. This course explains all parts of construction clearly and in an organized way, helping anyone handle situations on site confidently.”

“I purchased the CDT 101 course from Young Architect and I wanted to give a big thanks to you, Emily, Mike and the rest of the team for continuing to help create better architects for the profession. I gained a lot of knowledge studying for this exam using the course and the CSI Project Delivery Practice Guide. I feel that this exam is good for anyone who works in this profession. You guys rock. Keep doing what you're doing!”

“Taking the Young Architect CDT course has been one of the best decisions I made for my exam prep. Even beyond the test itself, this program helped me clearly understand the entire life cycle of a project from early design all the way through construction. I finally feel like all the pieces fit together, and that big-picture understanding has been incredibly valuable for both studying and my daily work. Even though the practice questions weren't identical to the real exam, they helped me build confidence, reduce anxiety, and get comfortable applying concepts. The flashcards and videos also made it easy to study whenever I had a few minutes, which was essential for balancing work, family, and everything else. I really appreciate how practical and structured the course is. Instead of just memorizing facts, I felt like I was actually learning how the industry works. It helped me study smarter, not harder, and use my time much more efficiently. Overall, this course gave me clarity, confidence, and a strong foundation not just for the CDT exam, but for my career as well. I would absolutely recommend it to anyone who wants a real understanding of project delivery and construction documents.”

“I'm just getting started on my path to becoming a licensed architect. After hearing your advice to pursue the CDT certification first, I decided to follow it and I'm glad I did! I just completed the exam yesterday, and the CDT 101 course was an invaluable resource throughout my preparation. The video content provided a great summary of the material covered in the PDPG, but what helped me the most were the practice question sets. The mock exam also gave me a much-needed confidence boost after some intense studying. Thank you so much for all that you do, it truly helped me a lot!”

“I took my CDT exam a week ago and I truly appreciated Young Architect Academy for putting together the CDT practice materials and tests. I don't think I would have survived the ordeal without all the flash cards, practice tests, and that amazing mock test. I will admit, some of the practice questions upset me because I would get the answers wrong even though I thought I understood the intent. But with all the key takeaways and the reasoning behind the logic of the questions, it would put the questions/answers into a new perspective, and I think that prepared me better for the test. I'm just so glad I found you guys. All of this was so worth it!”

“Finding this course was a game changer! I'd taken the CDT exam three times and failed each attempt. I tried the flashcards from CSI and joined online study groups, but nothing stuck, I couldn't digest or retain the information from the PDPG. Then I found this course. Emily and Mike's way of presenting the domains and breaking down the material has been eye opening. I now feel more confident than ever about retaking the exam, and I know I'll finally retain this knowledge and apply it in my work.”

“I recently completed the CDT Certification Bootcamp offered by Young Architect, and I’m thrilled to share that I passed the exam on my first attempt! The course, led by Michael, was incredibly well-structured. I followed his guidance closely—watching all the videos, completing the domain-specific questions, taking the mock tests, and reading the book. That’s truly all you need to succeed. Although the exam was tough, especially since it was my first time, I’m confident that anyone who follows the Young Architect method will be well-prepared. Each domain in the book is paired with videos and practice questions, and what really helped me were the explanations provided for each answer—whether right or wrong. This approach gave me a clear understanding of how to tackle the questions effectively. I wholeheartedly give 5 stars to the Young Architect CDT Certification Course. It’s a comprehensive, supportive, and effective path to certification.”
