CPD Presentations

What are CPD Presentations?

Access Studio delivers Continuing Professional Development, or CPD, presentations focused on accessibility, inclusive design and the built environment.

Our CPD presentations are designed for architects, building surveyors, developers, project managers, designers, builders and other built environment professionals who want to strengthen their understanding of disability access requirements and how they apply in practice.

Our CPD sessions focus on the practical application of accessibility requirements in real projects. We use examples and common design issues to help participants understand how access requirements can be considered and addressed throughout the design and construction process.

Presentations are tailored to the specific needs of a particular organisation, project team or area of interest.

Why would I need a CPD Presentation?

Accessibility requirements can be complex, particularly where the NCC, Premises Standards, Australian Standards, planning requirements and project-specific constraints interact.

CPD presentations provide project teams with an opportunity to build their technical knowledge, understand common accessibility issues and ask questions in a practical learning environment. They can also help organisations improve consistency across project teams and encourage accessibility to be considered earlier in the design process.

What our CPD Presentations may include

  • Accessibility principles and the broader purpose behind disability access requirements.
  • NCC, Premises Standards and relevant Australian Standards.
  • Common accessibility issues encountered during design and construction.
  • Practical examples drawn from built environment projects.
  • Performance Solutions and alternative compliance pathways.
  • Accessible circulation, entrances, ramps, stairs, lifts, doors and sanitary facilities.
  • Universal Design and inclusive design principles.
  • Specialist accessibility topics relevant to a particular organisation or project type.
  • Opportunities for questions, discussion and practical case studies.
  • Tailored content to suit the experience, discipline and learning objectives of the audience.
