Forticrete launches new Roofing CPD
Forticrete, one of Britain’s leading innovators in the design and production of concrete and slate roof tiles, has launched a new CPD to help architects and specifiers select the right product for their residential and commercial projects.
The 30 minute ‘Introduction to Roofing’ CPD covers the key considerations of roof tile specification. With many local planners continuing to favour the use of natural stone and slate because of its rustic finish and longevity, indicative of its durability, the CPD provides an overview of how flat and profiled interlocking concrete tiles, as well as double lap, concrete stone slates, can help to design homes that are sympathetic to the local vernacular without breaking budget. The CPD also discusses how to approach roof tile specification in circumstances that demand special design considerations such as curved roofs and vertical tile hanging.
Rachel Appleyard, Roofing Product Manager at Forticrete, commented: “At Forticrete, we’ve developed a unique expertise in the creation of innovative products which not only replicate, but actually improve on traditional materials.
“This depth of knowledge has been built through years of close collaboration with designers, architects and specifiers, developing products to suit individual needs. With that in mind, there isn’t anyone better placed to provide architects and specifiers with the advice and guidance they need to successfully design with concrete roof tiles and slates.”

www.cpdspecifier.co.uk Increasing the results of CPD seminars
Sales Executives of building component manufacturers often express the need to increase the benefits of their company’s CPD presentations to architects and other industry professionals. Sales/technical representatives also feel they could improve their presentation skills and confidence.
In order to address these situations and raise CPD presentations to a new success level, Corporate Professional Development Ltd has evaluated well over 100 seminars in architects’ offices and other venues throughout the country - even taking part in a CPD in Cape Town.
As a result of their detailed research and findings over several years, they have introduced a totally new approach to the training of CPD presenters - known as APRIL (Advanced Presentation-Related Individual Learning).
The success of the learning system is based on five stages: 1.
2. 3. 4. 5.
A detailed self-evaluation of the presenter’s CPD attitude and aptitude.
The vital stage of recording a live CPD presentation in an architect’s practice (by prior agreement).
Review of the completed presentation by the CPD Ltd training staff of Mike Howitt and Caroline Ryan.
A detailed report, based on CPD Ltd’s 100 item-plus success checklist, is then prepared and forwarded to the presenter and relevant executive.
Telephone calls are then made by CPD Ltd to ensure retention, encouragement and implementation of the recommended developments.
CPD Ltd’s video checklist is divided into eleven sections starting with Pre-seminar activities and going on to Opening remarks, Delivery, Body Language, Content, Visuals, PowerPoint Design, Content, Operation, to Question skills and Conclusion.
Benefits of APRIL include the saving of travel and accommodation costs; no lost time off territory; 100% individual ownership of the learning process; tutorial interaction to ensure effective retention. All with the highest measureable payback of training investment.
