Why Learn Here

Permitting can be frustrating - if you don’t know the process. I’ve helped hundreds of projects get approved by combining deep knowledge of building codes with practical permitting strategies. My goal is to make your job easier, faster, and less stressful.

About Me

Hi, I'm Tatiana Gust. For more than 20 years, I've worked in the permitting field, specializing in the Florida Building Code and other building regulations. I know the challenges, the back-and-forth, and the small details that make a big difference in getting a permit approved the first time.

I created these classes because so many people in the industry- new and experienced- struggle to keep up with permitting requirements, especially as building codes and processed change. My goal is to simplify it all for you.

My online classes will help you process permits faster, avoid costly delays, and work confidently with building departments.

Our Mission
