Course Description

This half-day course provides a clear and structured introduction to PAS 2035 and the principles of the whole-house retrofit approach, as part of the UK’s strategy for achieving net-zero targets.

Designed for professionals involved at any stage of the retrofit process — including assessment, design, coordination, and installation — the course explores risk-based pathways, project roles, and the integration of PAS 2035 with PAS 2030 and TrustMark requirements.

By the end of the session, learners will understand how to approach retrofit projects holistically, assess risk appropriately, and ensure quality and compliance across delivery stages
