When construction projects achieve the best outcomes it's more often than not down to the key early stage decisions made by the client team. We’ve talked to public and private sector clients and project managers working on the highest performing buildings across the UK and we want to share what we’ve learnt about early project engagement with you.
This course covers how to set up and manage the first stages of a project to secure the greatest impact on final building performance. You'll learn what aspects need to be considered in your approaches to policy and delivery, how to lever the positives to bring the whole team on board, reduce risk and cut carbon, and take away a toolkit of resources to set you up for success with your next project.
Key learning outcomes:
Topics covered:
Public and private sector client groups such as development officers, those involved in setting policy and procurement. Planners, QSs and project managers advising clients.
This course is not aligned to a particular energy standard, but if you are aiming to deliver better buildings this is a perfect fit. This is ideal for you if you are considering higher performing buildings such as AECB standard, Passivhaus, UK Net Zero Carbon, LETI or similar.
