Compi Distributors/ Wilsonart- "Specifying the Right Surface Material"

Different interior surfaces have different requirements for appearance, durability, and cost-effectiveness. Selecting and specifying the right surface materials to suit those different conditions help achieve quality projects and happy clients. This course looks at some common surface options including High Pressure Laminate (HPL), Thermofused Laminate (TFL), Wood Veneer, and Vinyl surfacing.

Erin Fernandes/ Design Surfaces- "Designing for Neurodiversity"

Designing for neurodiversity is an informative seminar that explores the intricate challenges inherent in creating environments that cater to the neurodiverse. While rooted in educational considerations, this course extends its scope to various settings. Participants will gain valuable insights and practical knowledge to inform design decisions that prioritize inclusivity and well-being for neurodiverse populations, including those with autism, ADHD, and sensory processing disorders.

Credits:1 LU | 1 HSW

Learning objectives:

Understand the diverse range of neurodiverse conditions and individuals, including but not limited to autism, ADHD, and sensory processing disorders, to inform design decisions that promote inclusivity and well-being.

Review relevant local and international guidelines, legislation, and best practices related to neurodiversity, ensuring that design choices align with industry standards and support the safety, health, and welfare of neurodiverse populations.

Understand the various sensory sensitivities and differences experienced by neurodiverse individuals, including those related to light, sound, touch, and spatial perception, and integrate this knowledge into design solutions that create environments accommodating these differences.

Review key design considerations that foster neurodiversity-friendly spaces across different settings and contexts, striking a balance between sensory-sensitive design and functionality to create safe and accessible environments for all.
