April's issue of RIBA CPD Showcase

The construction industry has well and truly entered the digital age. Building information modelling (BIM) may be the first area that springs to mind, but there’s so much more. In this month’s RIBA CPD Showcase, as well as sharing the latest RIBA approved CPD content, it highlights the broad range digital technologies that have helped to revolutionise production processes, shape buildings and transform the way they operate – from BIM to smart homes, creative lighting and more.

Some of the seminars focussing on BIM and Digital technologies include:

• BIM Beyond Build / Applied Centralised Data by Virtual Viewing Ltd
• Lighting for Museums, Galleries and Heritage Buildings by Concord Lighting (Feilo Sylvania UK Limited.)
• Cabling for the Integrated Home by CEDIA

This month’s issue also looks at RIBA Core Curriculum topics ‘Design, construction and technology’ and ‘Legal, regulatory and statutory compliance’. Remember, a minimum of 20 of your annual 35-hours of CPD should incorporate materials from the 10 Core Curriculum topics.

While restrictions in the UK have started to ease, the RIBA CPD Providers Network is still supporting RIBA members remotely by providing high quality and accredited learning materials that can be accessed online. April’s showcase also offers some fantastic live and online resources such as Domestic Kitchen Design by SieMatic Holding GmbH and Plywood: A Definitive Guide to Specification by Hanson Plywood Ltd.

The materials included in the monthly RIBA CPD Showcase are just sample of the wider range of content available – you can visit ribacpd.com to find even more.
