RIBA Safe & Healthy Environments CPD Completed

We’re pleased to share that Ana, our Senior Chartered Architect, has recently completed the RIBA Creating Safe and Healthy Environments CPD. Strengthening our practice-wide commitment to safety, wellbeing and responsible design leadership.

This comprehensive programme focuses on developing and managing effective strategies, processes and systems to support architects in their duties as designers and employers. It reinforces key statutory and professional health and safety responsibilities, including learning from major industry case studies, and supports preparation for the RIBA Health & Safety Test.

The course also builds practical capability in:
• Design risk management and hazard assessment
• Regulatory compliance and documentation of safety-critical elements
• Supporting structural integrity and safe construction practices
• Integrating wellbeing into design through natural light, ventilation and healthier material choices
• Aligning safety and risk strategies with the RIBA Plan of Work for coordinated project delivery

By continually investing in professional development, we strengthen our ability to deliver design solutions that protect people, support wellbeing and meet the highest standards of safety and compliance across every stage of a project.

Contact us today to speak to our team about delivering safer, healthier environments for your next project.
