ISOVER RIGIPS Academy updates its training programme

The ISOVER RIGIPS Academy is launching a new, exceptional training season with a series of compact, free online seminars. This comprehensive online training programme covers building physics, practical knowledge and current professional topics, and is aimed at all construction professionals in the trades and crafts. As soon as circumstances permit, the RIGIPS "Fit im Ausbau" in-person seminars will also be available to book again at various locations, in compliance with all current health and hygiene regulations. The seminars will focus on key topics in modern dry interior construction. ISOVER is also expected to resume in-person seminars on various topics at its training centre in Ladenburg from January 2021. All current dates and further information about the online offerings can be found at www.isover.de/akademie and www.rigips.de/fitimausbau.

With a series of compact and free online seminars, the ISOVER RIGIPS Academy is starting the new training season. For those who prefer to improve their knowledge and skills in on-site seminars with extensive practical exercises, further training in the "Fit im Ausbau" series from dry construction pioneer RIGIPS will also be available again from January 2021 alongside ISOVER’s in-person seminars in Ladenburg—of course, in compliance with all current health and hygiene regulations. All information is available at www.isover.de/akademie and www.rigips.de/fitimausbau.

Whether for trainees, specialist salespeople, or skilled craftsmen – the 21 online seminars from the ISOVER RIGIPS Academy, designed as short live sessions of 45 minutes each, are equally interesting for trade and crafts. Construction professionals can easily select exactly the training from the new online program that suits their needs. "We offer topics for beginners and advanced participants as well as for experts", explains Güven Kodas, Head of Seminar Management at the ISOVER RIGIPS Academy. "For everyone who, for example, wants to save time and costs for overnight stays and travel to our seminar locations, our free online offerings are ideal."

Online Trainings: live and interactive

Key strengths of the online training sessions are their real-time transmission and the small participant group of a maximum of 14 people. "Since we are virtually broadcasting live, participants can speak up directly and get immediate answers to their questions", says Güven Kodas. The range of topics in the online offer extends from the basics of building physics, to the new Building Energy Act (GEG), to the German government's climate package in connection with KfW funding. Webinars specifically for planners are also offered for planning support through BIM. All participants receive a corresponding certificate upon completion, and all training content is available for download.

In-person seminars "Fit im Ausbau"

For those who prefer to improve their knowledge and skills in on-site seminars with extensive practical exercises, further training in the "Fit im Ausbau" series from dry construction pioneer RIGIPS will also be available again from January 2021 alongside ISOVER’s in-person seminars in Ladenburg. The training offer, which has proven itself for years and is equally popular among craftsmen, specialist dealers, planners, and architects, provides hands-on know-how about modern expansion techniques and solutions. In particularly practical and well-founded standard seminars, construction professionals can intensively refresh and expand their knowledge. Topics include dry construction systems, fire protection, prevention of construction defects, or optimal surface treatment. The seminars will likely be offered in Frankfurt am Main, Brieselang, Schwerte, and Ladenburg after the Corona break.

Individually tailored in-house seminars

In-house seminars can also be booked cost-effectively after individual coordination and in accordance with the relevant legal regulations. For training in your own specialised company or business, you can select and assemble the desired seminar topics from a variety of different modules. The broad range of topics covers everything from the basics of drywall construction, fire protection walls, and room acoustics to special topics such as load-bearing fixtures or burglar-resistant walls.

All in-person seminars at the ISOVER RIGIPS Academy take place exclusively with consideration of and in accordance with the current possibilities of the applicable Corona protection regulations. Further information on the latest developments in online offerings and in-person training programs can be found at www.isover.de/akademie and www.rigips.de/fitimausbau.
