About CESBEM
The CESBEM IV Project (COMPETENCE ENHANCEMENT IN SUSTAINABLE BUILDING THROUGH EUROPEAN MOBILITY) follows for the successful CESBEM I, CESBEM II and III projects completed by LIT and KOMZET between 2009 and 2012. It is aimed at those in the Construction Sector and provides up-skilling in the field of energy efficiency in buildings.
Training will be hosted by KOMZET Germany, (Centre of Vocational Excellence in Energy Efficiency in Buildings), with a special emphasis on timber frame construction. Training will be over a two week period and a total of 90 people will be trained as part of the project. The Programme is funded by the European Commission - Leonardo de Vinci Programme Fund, which is administered by Leargas in Ireland.
The project is in line with Ireland’s commitments to reduce energy consumption in the residential sector as part of achieving a 20% energy saving target by 2020.
- Revised building regulations with improved energy efficiency standards.
- Changes in the construction sector requiring additional up-skilling of those involved in the sector.
- Energy rating of dwellings now being a legal requirement in Ireland.
