Normally these months at the beginning of the year are hard to spend as far as work is concerned and if we talk about the sector architecture, construction, energy efficiency or certification I think I understand that the issue is becoming more acute.
For this reason, we have compiled a series of places on the net that can provide us with free training in energy efficiency and other issues while we wait future projects. First we provide moocs in Spanish and later in English, recognizing that the technician who has more knowledge in languages will be able to take better advantage of this post.
In the network we can find thousands of courses where the "Free course" label and in the end it turns out that you end up paying or the requirements are very specific, so we opted for MOOC courses (Massive Open Online Course) It is a modality of free open education in its majority through an online digital platform normally covered by universities.
Also along the same lines:
Here at the end it is about looking for a course that can help both in our profession and complement the training. Another point to note is that in many cases, although the course is finished the documentation is still hanging on the network, although there are no tutors or follow-up by the professionals who have implemented the course.
The purpose of this MOOC is to train technicians and entities related to the architecture sector and in concrete the construction to be prepared for the new European strategy "Horizon 2020", with the aim of thrives on energy efficient cities (Greencities, Smart Cities… etc).
To achieve this objective, it must unite and unite the Society in general, public administrations, schools professionals, competent technicians, companies suppliers….etc.
