Galvanizers Association, the representational body for the hot dip galvanizing industry in the UK and the Republic of Ireland, were founder members of the RIBA CPD Providers Network and work closely with RIBA for new generations within the industry. The Association has been providing CPDs for Architects and Engineers for well over 25 years.
A continuing professional development (CPD) is an occasion to ensure that you keep up to date, stay ahead and manage your career. A CPD increases your potential by making your growing and progressing. We currently offer two CPDs: Corrosion Protection of Steel by Hot Dip Galvanizing and Galvanizing and Sustainable Construction. Both CPDs can either be presented online or by an office visit, depending on the current COVID restrictions.
The corrosion protection of steel CPD covers the hot dip galvanizing process, the coating performance, how to design for the process and more. The galvanizing and sustainable construction CPD will also cover the process and the performance, but will also focus on the sustainable aspects of galvanizing: carbon footprint, recycling and durability.
