1
The English speaking workshop will be held connected to the Green Retrofit conference in Budapest. The DGNB Certification System is a transparent and user-friendly tool for the planning, assessment, and certification of sustainable buildings and urban districts. It offers a comprehensive quality concept and is based on a holistic view of our built environment. It considers a building’s entire life cycle and makes a balanced evaluation of six different areas: environmental aspects, economic aspects, sociocultural and functional aspects, technology, processes, and the site.
Above and beyond other green building rating systems, the DGNB certification system is based on the entire life cycle of the building and the well-being of the users. This system is becoming the most highly regarded building certification in Europe.
COURSE INSTRUCTOR
The course will be led by Michael Dax, Managing Director DGNB, and Director of the DGNB International System and responsible for the system adaptation and international training. Mr. Dax studied Architecture and has over 15 ears of professional experience in both industry and consultancy in Europe and the United States.
Case Studies of DGNB projects throughout Europe will be presented by the TÜV Rheinland building certification team; Peter Popovics, Director of Business Stream Industrial Services, TÜV Rheinland InterCert Ltd. Peter has been working for TÜV Rheinland Group, a leading provider of technical, inspection and certification services worldwide, since 2008; Gerhard Hoffmann, Managing Director of ifes – Institute for Applied Simulation and Energy Facility Management GmbH.
