Course information (Content/Overview)
FORMAT: this CPD is presented in a correspondence format. The participant will receive the presentation and accompanying notes in a PDF format by e-mail on the starting date. The course is the equivalent of a one-day interactive seminar and must be completed within 14 days. This will enable the participants to work at their own pace, and to move between slides and notes to and for better understanding. No need to be at a computer at any specific time, and the course will use less than 50Mb data. Questions may be submitted by e-mail. A short questionnaire has to be completed at the end to ascertain that the participant has worked through the material and has understood it.
Aim of CPD: The aim of this CPD event is to equip designers with a basic understanding of the properties and principles of light, ventilation, colour and sound, which principles are not often taught, but are of special value to the designer. Although it is basic in approach, it could serve as a refresher for those designers with higher formal training as well. The CPD will also give a better understanding of Part O of SANS 10400, but it is not aimed at applying Part O as such.
This CPD will touch on SANS 10137 and includes other relevant document handouts as well.
