FIREFLY® CPD’s get RIBA’s seal of approval

September 2024

We’re delighted to say that our FIREFLY® CPD have now been awarded RIBA approval for our ‘Design & Understanding of Passive Fire Barriers & Compartmentation’ CPD. These will be available via NBS and the RIBA platforms so you can build your own understanding of the importance of Passive Fire Barriers within construction.

At FIREFLY®, we know that architects and specifiers rely on CPD’s to stay at the forefront of their field and that in the construction industry, RIBA-approved CPD content is the gold standard, carrying extra credibility and value. Our RIBA-approved CPD on Passive Fire Barriers will count towards your mandatory learning.

Chris Worby, Head of Sales at FIREFLY®, said: “We’re fully committed to providing the highest quality CPD materials to architects and all those involved in the development of specifications for Passive Fire Protection systems within the construction industry, and as part of this continuously developing offering, we are very pleased to announce the RIBA approval of our latest addition “Design & Understanding of Passive Fire Protection & Compartmentation” please reach out to any member of our commercial or specification team for more information and to book your CPD.”

Our RIBA approved CPD looks at understanding ‘fire behaviour’ and the importance of safe compartmentalisation. We also cover the progression of fire standards and regulations, as well as helping you build a better understanding of Passive Fire Protection (PFP) and the types of products available, through to the installation of passive fire barriers. We also provide a number of compelling case studies to help give a broader understanding of installation and meeting performance requirements.

The aims and objectives of our CPD are as follows:

Understanding ‘Fire Behaviour’
The need for Safe Compartments
The progression of fire standards and regulations
Understanding passive fire protection (PFP)
Options & passive fire protection material types available
Meeting performance requirements & detailing
