3D Visualization has revolutionized the way buildings and spaces are designed,  constructed, operated and maintained. Evaluating how and where to employ it efficiently and successfully is an emerging in-demand skill set.  The 3D Visualization for the Built Environment microcredential will provide you with skills development in Building Information Modeling (BIM), 3D Rendering Tools, GIS, Digital Twins and Virtual Reality/3D Printing applications for design, presentation, construction and ongoing operations and maintenance of buildings and spaces.

Building on the knowledge of modelling and simulating a whole building with simple systems (XBEM 3050 or equivalent experience), this course focuses on the representation of heating, cooling, and ventilation systems of the complexity relevant to real-world projects. In practice, buildings which require detailed energy models are typically large, complex, or both, with different zones using different systems. Delivering fresh air and space conditioning efficiently, meeting recent, high-performance codes, standards and certifications, relies on modern, well designed building systems. Modelling these appropriately, following the required level of accuracy – not too detailed but resolving all relevant features – is critical for a professional energy modeller. This course will show how common systems are modelled and will also equip the learner with the information on how to model new systems they might encounter. 

The ADAS Calibration course is part of a comprehensive training program designed to equip automotive and collision technicians with the knowledge and skills to accurately diagnose, repair and calibrate Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). This hands-on course provides detailed on-vehicle activities using the latest industry-specific diagnostic and calibration equipment. ADAS technology promotes the principles of the green economy and clean transportation by improving fuel efficiency, reducing emissions, preventing accidents, optimizing traffic flow, supporting electric vehicles, reducing accidents & the number of vehicles entering scrap yards and facilitating infrastructure planning. As these systems continue to advance, they will play an increasingly vital role in achieving a greener and more sustainable transportation ecosystem. 

Prerequisite(s) – Automotive service, collision technician or level-3 equivalent apprentice. 

This course incorporates simulator activities delivered via a cloud-based solution accessible through a web browser.

This course is the first of a three part microcredential that prepares the building industry working professional to become a professional energy modeller. The learner will receive knowledge on how to build an energy model and run a simulation up to current industry standards. They will also learn how to obtain model inputs that appropriately represent the building design at various stages of the building design process. From those inputs, the learner will build an energy model from scratch, run an annual simulation, and analyze the results. With their model, they will also perform an energy efficiency and greenhouse (GHG) gas reduction study. Finally, they will present their analysis and results to their client in a report. Throughout the course skills will be assessed in assignments and examinations. Successful candidates will be awarded with an XBEM badge, from which they can ladder up into the full microcredential.
