SUMMARY:BDQ Online CPD Masterclass with LA Lounge
DESCRIPTION:Designing with the Body Clock\nLight does more than shape how a space looks — it shapes how the people in it feel. \nJoin Susan Stokes of L A Lounge for a closer look at circadian rhythm lighting\, exploring the biological mechanism behind it\, how light signals affect the human body\, and how these effects are measured. Susan will unpack tunable white technology and the electrical system infrastructure required to support it\, giving Building Designers a practical understanding of where this approach fits within the lighting schemes they’re already creating. \nThe session closes with a look at real project applications\, helping you recognise where circadian rhythm and tunable white design genuinely add value for clients. \nDetails \n\nDate: Thursday 20 August 2026\nFormat: Online\nCPD Type: 1 Type F CPD\nPresenter: Susan Stokes\, L A Lounge\n\nClick Here To Register \n

SUMMARY:BDQ Online CPD: The Fee Conversation
DESCRIPTION:The Fee Conversation: Designing Your Way to Profit\nBDQ invites members to attend the upcoming online evening CPD session\, The Fee Conversation: Designing Your Way to Profit. \nJoin Tamica Lewis from Tempus Design Studio\, Owen Kleidon from StruXi Design\, Dane Power from Koda Design and Gavan Porter from GSP Advisory as they take an honest and practical look at the business of design\, from understanding your true costs and valuing your expertise to setting charge-out rates and pricing for real profit. \nThe session will explore common pricing challenges\, understanding your true business costs\, calculating realistic charge-out rates\, different pricing models and how to build profit into your pricing strategy. The panel will also discuss how to confidently present and defend your fees without immediately resorting to discounting. \nThis is a genuinely hands-on session\, designed to get you thinking about the numbers behind your own business\, not just theory. You’ll walk away with practical resources and tools you can apply straight away\, along with the confidence to put them into action. \nMembers will gain 1 Type A CPD point and leave with a clearer understanding of the numbers they need to review within their own business\, along with practical steps towards developing a more sustainable pricing strategy. \nRegister Here
