‘Keep Learning’ is a new learning programme, developed by UKGBC in collaboration with GBCs from the World GBC global network, which aims to connect built environment professionals virtually and globally to share examples, and best practice on Green building.

The challenge participants will focus through the programme will be ‘how to deliver net zero’ – in their respective businesses, projects, developments and buildings.

Objectives and Outcomes

  1. To deepen understanding of Green Buildings and explore Green Building practices globally
  2. Digest and define what Net Zero looks like for your own business or project

Guided learning runs throughout the programme, and learning takes place through the Moodle virtual learning environment with a number of different components deployed, from reading, researching, sharing, connecting, working, coaching.

The programme lasts 4 weeks in total, with the first pilot programme taking place 1 – 30 June, it involves a total of 2 days spread across the 4 weeks (approximately 0.5 days a week, spread across each week).

Week 2: Cases
In this week, we explore good practice examples, specific case studies and take a look at different building typologies, we will learn from each other as to key challenges as well as what your business is doing to ‘build green’.

Week 3: Action
