Event Details

The One Day Introduction to Passivhaus Training was developed for newcomers to Passivhausโ€”whether developers, suppliers, trades, architects, engineers, or contractorsโ€”who want to learn foundational knowledge about the Passivhaus building standard.


In this course, we'll cover:

  • A deep dive into the 5 major principles of Passivhaus, and how we can successfully integrate them into our buildings.
  • The myriad of benefits that come along with it and the reason why they are so important in today's climate.
  • Passivhaus' suitability for Australia's varied climate, where Passivhaus currently sits compared to code and how it works alongside other commonly used rating tools.
  • An in-depth discussion of design processes, construction methods, material choices, product options and more to help guide your buildings towards better outcomes.
  • Key considerations to be made throughout each stage of a project to help guide your projects towards a truly high-performance outcome.


This knowledge prepares you to complete further Passivhaus education and sets you up to leverage learnings for better building outcomesโ€”namely, energy-efficient, healthy, resilient and more sustainable buildings.


Throughout the course, you will also hear about case studies from industry leaders in the Passivhaus space and enjoy
