I thought it might be useful to have a thread where we could collect details of free or nearly free training, and in time, reviews by members who attended.
I’ll start the ball rolling with this free online introduction to Passivhaus.

A course of free webinars from Green Building Stores. Their advice is usually very good but maybe simplistic for some people. Listen, watch, learn and remember they are trying to sell to you!
I’ve heard Sarah Price speak before. This is going to be a good experience.

I have just attended this webinar and found it very interesting. If you want to view it later it will be available at
Passivhaus Trust have a range of podcasts, some of which are free to non-members and have also referenced other podcasts that may be of interest:
I just listened to an interesting podcast loosely about how the One Stop Shops for retrofit work in Ireland. They have a much better approach than here, with a much higher take up for retrofit as a result. Also assisted by better financial backing from and through the state.
PS. There are references to SEAI. By way of explanation, that is The Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland.
This free course from Passivhaus Trust covers overheating in buildings and how to avoid it. Module 1 should make sense to most forum members. Module 2 is far more technical and aimed at users of PHPP.
I just followed module 1.
