CPD Speaker Meeting (12th Nov 2024) - LiDAR technology in residential surveys

Bookings for this event will close at midnight the day before the event.

The opportunity for assessors to make use of LiDAR technology to accelerate the decarbonisation of residential heat.

Why reaching homeowners at the perfect moment with independent data will turbo charge heat pump adoption and unlock new revenue streams for assessors.
(There will be a route into an additional market opportunity at the end of the session for anyone interested)

Pre-Booking is required.

This CPD session will be presented by Alex Butcher of Warmur. The content should be highly relevant to Domestic Energy Assessors and Retrofit Assessors / Coordinators. It is also likely to have relevance to some non-domestic energy assessors but mainly those primarily involved in Level 3 assessments.

This should be a highly interesting session encompassing the potential to use new technologies in building surveys. There will also be an opportunity to add an additional income stream for your business at the end.

Following a brief introduction, the agenda will be:

• Proficiency brief update / industry news
  
  
• Main session - LiDAR technology in residential surveys including...
  • How the equipment works
  • How the 3D capture software works
  • What comes out of the software - in particular the heat loss calculation
  • How this is of particular value for heat pump installations
  • Access to additional features and data
  • Where this sits in the Retrofit / funding / purchase processes
  • The various pathways (e.g. Installer led, home-owner led, assessor led)
  • The business opportunities

We will then pick up any specific AOB items tabled for the meeting or carried forward from the previous meeting.

This is followed by an open floor discussion and networking session to close the meeting. Expect this to finish around 5:30 pm but allow some flexibility if you can as there is a lot to gained from the open discussions and networking at the end.

This event is FREE for Proficiency members. It is open to non-members at a cost of £25. (It makes more sense to join and get at least 12 sessions like this for free in the year)

Attendance certificates will be added to the member's  CPD record. Non-members will be provided with a PDF attendance certificate. The meeting is expected to last for about an hour and a half overall, and to qualify for at least an hour of relevant CPD.

NOT A MEMBER? Join for just £60 and get free access to this and at least 12 hours of CPD like this, and a listing on the website.
(For just £25 more, as a Premium member get an enhanced listing and other benefits).

HOW IT WORKS - Please read carefully

You will be sent joining instructions and/or the relevant link ahead of the meeting. This is typically sent out about 1 day ahead of the event. For online events we generally use Zoom.

Around 24 hours ahead of the event you will receive a link to register for the event. You can do this any time from then until just before the meeting starts. Once you have registered you will receive the actual meeting link. Please ensure you register using your correct full name. This ensures you will get the right name on your CPD certificate (if applicable),

(If there is less than 24 hours to go, please check your junk / spam folder before contacting us to say you haven't received the link. It will probably be there. If it is not then do contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. but don't leave it to the last minute. Once we have started to set up for the session we will not be able to take calls or respond to emails).

Please also ensure you have tested your set up and both your audio and video are working. If we cannot see you are present we may not be able to issue you with a CPD certificate. If you know in advance that you will not have video capability, please email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and we will agree an alternative way in which the organisers can verify you were actually present (and hopefully paying attention) for the entire session.

If you need to briefly deal with something like an urgent phone call during the session, please turn your video off whilst you do so to avoid a distraction to other attendees. Video off for short periods of absence will not affect eligibility for CPD certificates. Prolonged periods of absence or where video is off so you could be absent, will prevent us being able to issue a CPD certificate. This verification of your presence is essential for us to ensure that the value of Proficiency CPD certificates is maintained so they can be accepted by accreditation schemes. 

(There are no refunds where CPD certificates cannot be issued due to only partial attendance at an event).
