Jane McCarron, a Trainee Planner at GRAHAM, recently returned from Canada upon completion of an ‘Optimizing High Performance Building Design’ course at Humber College Toronto.
Jane was selected to attend the course following an application and interview process, giving her the unique opportunity of learning from leading Professors in sustainability and high-performance buildings.
While there she became Carbon Literacy Certified and developed a deeper understanding of the built environment’s role in supporting climate change mitigation, adaption, and resilience. She also gained extensive knowledge in the principles of Passivhaus and high-performance design techniques and how they can benefit the construction industry and society. To cap it all, she ended her trip by representing the students at the closing ceremony.
GRAHAM congratulated Jane on her success, knowing that this experience will only further enhance her studies as a Higher Level Apprentice in Construction Engineering with Surveying, and support the valuable contribution she makes to the GRAHAM team.
