Upgrading the next wave of Training of Trainers (ToT)

After 2016, which was dense with 6 ToTs, held in 6 cities, followed by 76 participants, we are now listing and analysing ideas for content upgrades, using internal and external feedback and listing experiences we want to learn on. The ACIP is already working on producing high quality teaching aids (physical) that enable students to deeply understand concepts encompassing building materials, architecture design, climatology, and building science & services.

We have also been calculating the carbon footprint of the 12 workshops so as to offset them.

Beyond ToT, helping to upgrade curricula

The stage after ToTs in each college and university is to get back to these academies and spend time with Head of departments and professors on curricula upgrade. This is when we get our hands in the nuts and bolts. We have started working with leading institutions, in Delhi, Mumbai, and Pune. These will be their cities’ pioneers leading the way for the others to follow.

This is what we call Phase 2 or ‘Deep dive’, it consists in the most important legacy Fairconditioning will leave.
