It is always useful to see how others do it\, and compa re with what you do. This is a great opportunity to pick up tips that will improve your workflow. Even highly experienced DesignBuilder users should have some 'I didn't realise I could do it that way' moments.\nPre-Booking is required.\nThis is an online CPD session primarily for existing Design Builder users\nIt will also be highly suitable for anyone considering whet her to upgrade to using DesignBuilder.\nNDEAs who do not use DesignBuilder \, or intend to do so\, may still benefit from seeing how envelopes are ha ndled in 3D as it helps to understand the principles of scenarios such as roof-rooms and offices in warehouses etc.\nFacilitated by Proficiency Chai rman Ian Sturt\, there will be an opportunity to ask about any geometry yo u struggle to model or features of the software you don't understand. Prof iciency provides peer support for DesignBuilder users via the dedicated se ction of our forum\, and this is intended to be an interactive extension o f this. It will be an interactive session with live use of the software.\n The session will typically consist of topics such as:\n\nA reminder of the underlying principles of DesignBuilder and how it is used for EPC purpose s\nA refresher on some of the features including:\n\nImporting\, scaling a nd orientating 2D floor plans\nOutlines\nBoolean\nMerging zones\n\n\nSpeci fic modelling examples including:\n\nZone within a zone\nMezzanines\nRoof- rooms and dormers\n\n\nAnswers to questions that have been submitted ahead of the session\nAnswers to questions from attendees at the session\n\nTo get the most out of this session\, please think about which principles you don't really understand and/or parts of the modelling process cause you t he most concern. Email your list of those points and an indication of what you are unsure of to events@proficiency.services with 'DesignBuilder Q&A'   in the subject line.\nAny questions we cannot satisfactorily answer will be identified and referred to DesignBuilder for clarification.\nThis even t 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 f or free in the year).\nAttendance certificates will be added to the member 's  CPD record. Non-members will be provided with an attendance certificat e to enable them to claim at least an hour of relevant CPD. \nNOT A MEMBER ?

This is typically sent out about 1 day ahead of the event. For online events we generally use Zoom.\nAround 24 hours ahead of the event you will receive a link to register for the event. You can do this any time from t hen until just before the meeting starts. Once you have registered you wil l receive the actual meeting link. Please ensure you register using your c orrect full name. This ensures you will get the right name on your CPD cer tificate (if applicable)\,\n(If there is less than 24 hours to go\, please check your junk / spam folder before contacting us to say you haven't rec eived the link. It will probably be there. If it is not then do contact ev ents@proficiency.services but don't leave it to the last minute. Once we h ave started to set up for the session we will not be able to take calls or respond to emails).\nPlease also ensure you have tested your set up and b oth 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 advanc e that you will not have video capability\, please email events@proficienc y.services and we will agree an alternative way in which the organisers ca n verify you were actually present (and hopefully paying attention) for th e entire session.\nIf you need to briefly deal with something like an urge nt phone call during the session\, please turn your video off whilst you d o so to avoid a distraction to other attendees. Video off for short period s of absence will not affect eligibility for CPD certificates. Prolonged p eriods of absence or where video is off so you could be absent\, will prev ent us being able to issue a CPD certificate. This verification of your pr esence is essential for us to ensure that the value of Proficiency CPD cer tificates is maintained so they can be accepted by accreditation schemes.  \n(There are no refunds where CPD certificates cannot be issued due to onl y partial attendance at an event). https://proficiency.services/events/pas t-events/event/348-proficiency-cpd-26th-march-2024-designbuilder-modelling DTSTART:20240326T160000Z DTEND:20240326T173000Z LOCATION:Online () SUMMARY:Proficiency CPD (26th March 2024) - DesignBuilder Modelling URL:https://proficiency.services/events/past-events/event/348-proficiency-c pd-26th-march-2024-designbuilder-modelling END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
