In the lighting industry many things are constantly evolving, this could be regulations, sustainable practises and of course technology. Therefore, it is so important you are up to date with the latest news and guidance. That’s why we created Kingfisher CPD’s to help keep you informed on some of the hot topics in the industry.
CPD training is recognised across the globe in almost all industries to allow professionals to enhance their knowledge and skills within their own companies and roles. We’re passionate about lighting and we want to expand our many years of knowledge to help others too.
We have drawn upon a number of subjects such as best practise, environmental impact, lighting metrics and not forgetting circular economy.
Environmental Impact on Wildlife
Expanding our understanding of how lighting affects various species and ecosystems is crucial, alongside exploring strategies to mitigate harm to wildlife and their habitats through diverse practices and technologies. This encompasses addressing issues such as light pollution and relevant legislation, while considering aspects of design and luminaire implementation.
Best Practices in Lighting Design
Within the realm of lighting design, we've observed both innovative approaches that transcend conventional boundaries and designs that neglect essential human-centric qualities. We will discuss manufacturing processes and accessibility of fittings, emphasising the significance of adhering to good design practices for safety and efficiency.
Questioning Lighting Metrics
This Continuing Professional Development (CPD) session examines the differences between how we perceive light and how it is quantified. Topics include the variability of lumen packages from day to night, the impact of package placement, and how light data can be influenced by surface reflections.
Circular Economy
A prominent theme within the industry; Circular Economy advocates for minimizing waste throughout manufacturing processes, fostering a circular model that prioritizes environmental preservation. Drawing upon the collective expertise of the Kingfisher Lighting team, this CIBSE accredited CPD explores the intersection of Circular Economy principles with lighting, covering essential topics such as defining Circular Economy, understanding the significance of Circular Economy, embodied carbon and the future of lighting.
