What training looks like in this new ‘normal’


With the ongoing COVID-19 situation our ‘normal’ lives might seem like they are on pause, and our opportunities for personal and professional development have disappeared, however, CIBSE, as a leading authority in building services engineering, is still prioritising its duty to support its members, and the wider building services community, during these uncertain times. This is why CIBSE Training is focussing its attention on new online learning opportunities.

Virtual Learning. The CIBSE Training Team has been working hard to adapt your ‘classroom’ learning experience to the online medium, so you can still benefit from our knowledgeable trainers and valuable content. Virtual Learning gives you access to video-recorded sessions; supportive text, to enhance your learning experience; quizzes, to test your understanding of the course; and a CPD certificate upon completion. 

The virtual learning portfolio has been expanding, including courses from various key areas in building services, such as:

Virtual Learning provides a new meaning to the way you learn online. Supporting your SUCCESS is our main priority.

Supportive and interactive content such as quizzes
Updated content, guidance and relevant legislations
CPD hours 
Continuous improvement of our content based on feedback 
Examples based on real life situations
Sessions recorded so you can dip in and out of your learning journey at your own pace
Supplying live Q&A sessions with the trainer for corporate offerings

Live Learning. Live Learning is an engaging online event where the trainer delivers the course live to the registered participants. The training team will also schedule in live sessions for its most popular courses, email your demands to training@cibse.org.

With the return to the office and the ‘new normal’ of hybrid working, we have seen the reintroduction of face-to-face training.

For corporate training there is no extra travelling required by employees, for either face-to-face or remote training. You can choose your own date and time, and the content can be delivered in either format. So, what are the differences between the two learning options? Preference. The main criterium for choosing face-to-face or remote training is based on people’s concentration level, preferred style of interaction, the learning environment and their digital knowledge, or simply, some people just prefer one learning format to another.

Now in its 15th year, the CIBSE Building Performance Awards is the only awards scheme to celebrate the measured performance of projects and products in use while celebrating the engineering consultancies and manufacturers that are contributing to a low carbon future. Michael Lonsdale Group won the Embodied Carbon Award for its pioneering work with suppliers to create a database of low embodied carbon products that enable it to recommend low carbon building services systems to its clients.  We heard from Michael Lonsdale Group about what this award means to them: Caption: Senior Environmental & Sustainability Manager, Joanna Constandis (right) and Engineering Services Director, Paul Cornwell (left) collecting the Embodied Carbon Award at BPA2022.
