Learning Zone
Welcome to the area of the EPG website on which we will be focusing much of our development efforts over the coming months. This area of the website is intended to provide content that is both informative and educational. As it becomes more comprehensive, we hope to increase the level of interactiveness in order to make it a focal point for everyone wishing to learn more about all aspects of the energy performance of buildings, and what it means to be a CIBSE Low Carbon Consultant.
We welcome contributions from Group members for publication on this website. If you wish to submit a paper, presentation or article for publication on this website, please email a copy to learning@cibse-epg.org and it will be reviewed by Steering Committee members prior to being published here.
