CPD Rooflight Seminar Dispels The Myths

A new seminar has been approved by RIBA within their network to provide quality CPD material to the construction industry.

A new seminar produced and presented by rooflight specialists Xtralite (Rooflights) Ltd has been approved by RIBA within their network to provide quality CPD material to the construction industry.

The one hour presentation entitled "Rooflight Solutions" tackles some myths and inaccuracies about rooflights demonstrating that current technology, as well as developments in materials and manufacturing processes, has made rooflights an efficient and cost effective way of introducing natural light and extra security into a building.

A series of case studies confronts a range of design and specification issues and shows Architects how, with improved and informed specification, they can find a solution to many application problems.

The seminar also presents some useful information, backed by technical data, on the benefits of natural light from an economic, phsychological and physiological perspective.

The final section gives the designer a broad understanding of current legislation and practices ensuring improved specifications of rooflight products and materials to achieve better building design.

Continual Professional Development (CPD) is the requirement that professionals continue their education and training every year after they qualify.

RIBA have identified two types of CPD: formal and general.

The network within which Xtralite has achieved approval counts as formal CPD and can therefore be double rated by architects within the RIBA CPD points system.

tThe Xtralite presentation was assessed by RIBA Members carefully chosen to provide the level of professional experience needed to perform the role of assessing the CPD material effectively within the Providers Network.
