2-Day Practical Course on Safety Data Analytics to Improve Workplace Safety & Health Performance: Data Analytics is one of the emerging frontier technologies that our workforce needs training in to acquire skills to analyse available data. Workplace Safety and Health (WSH) works involve enormous data in the form of inspection reports, incident reports, safety behaviors indicators, procurement data, etc., that can be analysed with suitable data analytics tools to arrive at outcomes that can be used to improve work productivity and WSH performance at workplaces. Safety analytics can predict and prevent workplace safety incidents, thus saving lives, money and organisations reputation which goes beyond the conventional dashboards and safety reports of past incidents or accidents.

Building Information Modelling (BIM) has become one of the most exciting developments in the building and construction industry in recent years. As an integrated design and documentation tool used to enhance communication and collaboration among all the project stakeholders, BIM has already begun changing the way architects, engineers, contractors and building owners work together. With strategic implementation, BIM will significantly improve the design and construction process through more integrated project coordination. BIM has also been identified as one of the key technologies to be adopted under BCAs S$250-million Construction Productivity and Capability Fund (CPCF) to help the local construction industry improve productivity and enhance its capability.The Specialist Diploma in Building Information Modeling (BIM) aims to impart in-depth knowledge on BIM fundamentals and develop strategic skills for BIM project planning and implementation. It will focus on BIM applications for effective design analysis, productive design and construction coordination and holistic facility management. BIM standards and guidelines as well as BIM project case studies will also be included in this course.Upon graduation, participants can look forward to career opportunities as BIM Project Coordinators, BIM Modelers/Operators, BIM Consultants/ Specialists, and BIM Managers.

Participants of the Certification Course for Green Mark Manager will gain an in-depth understanding of BCAs environmental sustainability legislative framework, underlying performance standards and BCA Green Mark assessment systems, including the revised BCA Green Mark Criteria For New Non-Residential Buildings Green Mark For Non-Residential Buildings: 2015 (GM NRB: 2015). Focus will be placed on green building design guidelines and technologies, where the participants will learn the methods of identifying, evaluating and selecting cost effective solutions towards a more holistic green building performance. On top of that, the course will also touch on the integration of passive and active building design, as well as cooperation between disciplines in the design stage so as to optimise building design. It aims to practically empower industry professionals to take leadership in competently guiding projects to excel in the Green Mark criteria, and ultimately push the frontiers for greener buildings.
