The New Normal in Continued Professional Development (CPDs)

COVID19 has definitely impacted on how we go around our normal business. One aspect which has seen a dramatic change is delivery of our CPD seminars.

Before COVID19, we would typically meet with architects, specifiers, developers, engineers and contractors to present our CPD seminars/presentations in a training room environment. One of the positive impacts from COVID has seen a dramatic demand for virtual and online seminars. This new approach is certainly a popular alternative. Top professionals are now able to learn where and when they want and in the comfort of their own homes.

The NBS Source platform officially replaced RIBA Product Selector at the end of July 2020.  This exciting change allows specifiers to find products they need for their projects with ease and gives manufacturers, such as Delta Membrane Systems Limited a unique platform to offer high-quality digital product information at a click of a finger.

Delta’s newest edition of brochure offers architects, specifiers, developers, contractors and homeowners’ advice on continuous waterproofing solutions.  In its most basic form, Delta’s newest edition is instinctive – a wet basement requires remedial works, if there is an active leak, it requires stopping – whilst it is understood that there are numerous waterproofing solutions available, are these systems and solutions continuous and able to withstand the test of time and offer durability to the structure life cycle?

Have we all been living in a crisis for almost 10 weeks now?  I think it’s important we take a moment to reflect on the sheer scale and enormity of what we have and are going through.  Tragedies have spread from family to family, livelihoods have stalled, some of us have not been able to see loved ones and the lack of interaction has certainly been felt in Delta HQ and by our remote working teams.  The term ‘unprecedented’ is by no means understated here, let us hope we never experience this again in our live time or that of our children.
