Architects and engineers across Canada require continuing education credits to maintain their professional licenses and stay current with industry trends. At Arbon Canada, our Lunch and Learn sessions help you meet these requirements while gaining practical knowledge about industrial building design and safety. These programs focus on real-world applications you can use immediately in your daily workflow. We provide all the required letters of completion once the sessions are complete for submission to your professional organization.
Industrial and commercial buildings have various challenges that go beyond textbooks and general design principles. Loading docks, high-performance doors and large-scale ventilation systems require specialized knowledge and training to maximize overall safety and efficiency. Staying updated on this technology helps protect your clients’ investments while reducing liability risks.
Arbon Canada provides several sessions that address the specific needs of today’s industrial facility design professionals in Canada. The sessions are typically delivered in a lunch and learn setting with the ability to customize some elements of the session beforehand (focus on technical considerations, installation requirements, latest industry technologies) This allows us to deliver a relevant and useful session that offers educational insights and practical knowledge to architects and professional engineers. The sessions we offer for the Canadian market are:
This training covers potential safety issues at a loading dock and throughout an industrial facility. Industry professionals guide you through common hazards and prevention strategies that protect workers and reduce accident costs.
