Welcome to the biobased construction training.
_____________________________________________________________________________
This training focuses on developing and disseminating knowledge and skills related to biobased design within architecture and engineering.
The ultimate goal of this two-day training is for architects to gain the knowledge and experience to involve their clients and construction teams early on in the decision-making process, enabling them to guide the process by properly assessing and understanding the considerations. This allows for the creation of designs that optimally utilize the properties of biobased materials. The training also addresses the organizational challenges associated with the transition to biobased design. This will help architects and their firms be better prepared to implement this transition.

The architect training includes a workbook, a personal guidebook that helps you shape and develop your own and your firm's path toward Biobased Construction. Use it to take notes, do exercises, and review later or share with your own organization. It also provides a template for writing an action plan for your firm's transition. This workbook was used throughout the live training; the e-learning doesn't offer that guidance, but you might find helpful tips in it. Browse through it or print it out and fill it out as you see fit!
