| Target group: | Construction and architecture specialists. |
| Prerequisites: | Successful completion of the online components of all six e-courses that make up the Built Environment Sustainability micro-qualification study programme: • Construction Economics for Decarbonisation; • Building Carbon Footprint – Theory; • Digital tools for evaluating buildings as a material bank; • Product Environmental Life Cycle Assessment (LCA); • Building Carbon Footprint – Reporting; • Sustainable and Environmental Approaches to Modern Construction and Cost Planning; |
| Topics: | The 2-day intensive, on-campus consolidation workshop will take place on the TalTech campus as a physical, in-presence event. This capstone component of the Built Environment Sustainability micro-qualification study programme focuses on collaborative problem-solving, hands-on practical applications and thematic discussions to synthesise and apply what has been learnt in all of the six e-courses. The workshop is led by TalTech experts and it serves as the final, summative assessment component for the micro-qualification.
