We are pleased to announce that the Environment Study Centre has been appointed by the Welsh Zero Carbon Hwb to develop and deliver training in the retrofit of social housing in Wales. This is one of a number of commissions this year, which sees the Environment Study Centre’s expertise being acknowledged by the most credible of clients who want genuine expertise in the retrofit of buildings. The main focus of the training will be the role of project managers and site inspectors.
Our Director of Studies, Learning and Research Professor John Edwards said: “We now seem to be the number one choice for many organisations, and the thing that sets us apart from other training organisations, is that we are not just trainers. All of us are involved with projects, and training is just part of what we do, and this arrangement means that we bring our projects into our training courses”. Professor Edwards added: “With this particular commission we have a focus on retrofit project management and site inspection, two roles that I have extensive personal experience of”.
The Environment Study Centre develops and delivers its own courses, many of them achieving government approved qualifications, but has also developed and on many occasions delivered training for a host of organisations that has included the IHBC, CIOB, RICS, CITB, HES, Scottish Lime Centre, Welsh Zero Carbon Hwb, Stirling City Heritage Trust, Historic England, Northern Ireland Government, CITB Northern Ireland and many others.
