CPD Seminars
Grant UK is a member of RIBA's CPD Providers Network, offering RIBA approved seminars to architects and specifiers on air source heat pumps.
RIBA accredited CPD seminars available through Grant UK
RIBA Chartered Architects must achieve a certain level of Continued Performance Development (CPD) in order to remain a member. Grant UK’s CPD Seminars are RIBA approved and therefore contribute towards the requirements that chartered members must meet each year to maintain their competence. Each seminar is 1 hour and can be carried out in lunch breaks or in allocated bookings, and will form part of the minimum 35 hours of CPD training and 100 learning points required per year.
RIBA approved material
Over 500 manufacturers and other organisations form RIBA’s CPD Providers Network. These companies are registered to provide RIBA-approved CPD material to architects, specifiers and consultants. The material can vary in format, from videos and books through to conferences and factory tours. Grant UK has produced a free of charge seminar which focuses on air source heat pumps, providing general awareness information for the attendees. The seminar has been rigorously assessed by RIBA and is consequently worth double CPD points to RIBA Chartered Architects.
The seminar offered by Grant UK, which is available at venues throughout England, Scotland and Wales, provides an introduction to how an air source heat pump works before delving into greater detail about specification and installation. The seminar is designed to provide an overview on this renewable technology, including an insight into regulations and standards, so that attendees understand the correct operation of heat pumps.
Topics covered in the seminar
- Introduction to ASHP technology and its operation
- System design, specification issues and correct sizing of an ASHP
- Correct and incorrect protocols for ASHP design and installation
- Relevant regulations and standards which affect ASHP installations
- Understanding performance levels of an ASHP
- Estimating running costs and savings associated with this technology when installed and used correctly.
