We offer CIBSE accredited CPD seminars, available face to face or online. Topics include robust lighting, emergency lighting for challenging environments, lighting: the retrofit revolution, light that changes lives for secure healthcare environments and sustainable lighting for railway stations of the future.
CPD Seminar – Sustainable Lighting For Railway Stations Of The Future
Great British Railways (GBR) will be replacing Network Rail, the UK rail industry is focusing on sustainable lighting for the railway stations of the future.
This CIBSE accredited CPD seminar looks at how this will be achieved through the rail industry’s 4S framework: Sustainability, satisfaction (customer), safety and stewardship. We will look at what GBR considers a sustainable luminaire, the circular economy and sustainable product design. How manufacturers can aid safety measures and improve customer satisfaction will be examined and stewardship measures explained. The CPD will conclude with some rail lighting best practice advice.
CPD Seminar – Emergency Lighting For Challenging Environments: Updated for BS 5266 1:2025
This CIBSE accredited CPD explains why emergency lighting is essential, who is responsible under UK fire safety law, and how to design, verify and maintain compliant systems in demanding environments.
We examine BS 5266-1-2025, including its expanded scope covering escape routes, local area and standby lighting. We highlight the strengthened requirement for testing, documentation and 5- year photometric verification, along with wiring resilience measures such as two independent circuits for high-risk areas.
Participants will learn application definitions, signage requirements, points of emphasis, and the latest performance criteria for escape routes and open areas. We also cover battery technologies, automatic testing solutions (Self Test/DALI) and how to design for maintainability. The session concludes with practical examples of emergency lighting requirements across social housing, custodial, secure healthcare and rail applications.
