IHBC director Sean O’Reilly has highlighted the Continuing Professional Development (CPD) opportunities offered by the IHBC Wales Branch conference on how to make traditional and historic buildings more energy efficient and sustainable, an event in Wrexham on 2 September linked to a free afternoon seminar on applying for IHBC membership.
Sean O’Reilly said: ‘We all know just how important traditional, so-called ‘pre-1919′ buildings are in the big picture of climate change, but treating them the wrong way wreaks untold damage on the fabric while also increasing carbon emissions. That’s why our Wales Branch conference on energy efficiency is so important, and the concise and accessible updates on offer at this unique event mean that you don’t have to be a specialist to come away with some of the best CPD the IHBC has to offer!’
‘And if you are interested in the benefits of IHBC accreditation, you can stay on for the membership seminar in the afternoon!’
At the conference you can hear about:
- What could happen when you don’t get it right!
- What is best practice in the way we use and treat buildings including energy efficiency retrofit
- Some of the latest research, decision making tools and guidance.
