Continuing professional development (CPD) points are to be obtained by all practising architects. Points can be obtained by attending CPD presentations, such as those approved by the Architectural Information Services (AIS).

 

Why Continuing Professional Development (CPD)?

CPD requirements are in place to keep practising architects updated on:

  • Changing codes and standards;
  • Updates to best practice;
  • New technology, and;
  • New products and materials.

 

Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Presentations

CPD presentations must be accredited to ensure they satisfy strict criteria regarding their educational content. Manufacturers and industry experts can deliver CPD:

  • In-house, at the firm’s location, i.e. board room.
  • At industry events such as conferences and expos, i.e. Equinox.

 

Niche Product Manufacturers Provide Value to CPD

Manufacturers of niche products are experts in their fields. To maintain their positions, top manufacturers must stay current and lead in innovation, technology and consumer demands. As such, their presentations are rich and full of value.

Specialist manufacturers such as Danpal Australia can provide insight into:

  • Relevant changes to Australian building codes and standards;
  • Emerging trends;
  • Innovative solutions for major architectural challenges such as climate change;
  • Latest research and evidence;
  • Best practice for working with particular materials/products, and;
  • The evolving governmental and cultural changes which are influencing the future of architecture.
