________

The course schedule

Within 12 months, you will acquire the basic certificate in outdoor lighting (3-day introduction to lighting design, Level 1) and the advanced certificate in outdoor lighting (3-day advanced course, Level 2). Both parts of the course can be taken individually or as a 1-week course as both parts of the course fit together seamlessly. Using practical case studies from the areas of streets, sidewalks, (parking) squares, facades and parks, we will teach you the normative and design constraintsin lighting planning and the use of the planning software DIALUX EVO or RELUX.

Our priority is therefore to combine technical, normative, economic and design issues of street and outdoor lighting with solid operational planning know-how - especially in implementation planning.

Benefit from our experience. Experienced professionals will train you!
