Training built around the workflow of a real project — from the first question you ask to the decision the model supports. Every course is applied: you finish with something you can run on your own work.
The flagship MaedX course. A full modelling workflow end to end: setting up geometry and zoning, choosing assumptions you can defend, running and reading results, and comparing design options that change a real decision.
Next cohort dates add dates
The foundation course. What a model is actually for, how a workflow is structured, and the habits that separate a model that informs a decision from one that just produces numbers.
Read a climate file properly and turn it into design moves — orientation, shading, ventilation strategy — before any energy model is built.
Embodied and operational carbon across the life cycle: scope, boundaries, data quality, and how to compare material and system choices honestly.
Systems modelling for people who model buildings: load calculations, system selection, and the assumptions that quietly drive your results.
Automate the repetitive parts of a modelling workflow — parametric runs, results parsing, and clear reporting — without becoming a software engineer.
Each course follows one project from question to decision, so the sequence you learn is the sequence you'll use.
Software changes; judgement doesn't. Most of the teaching is about what you feed a model and why.
Templates, checklists and a worked model you keep and reuse on the next job.
The workflows are tool-agnostic and demonstrated in the tools most teams already have. Where a specific tool is required, the course page says so before you enrol and free or trial versions are used wherever possible.
Not for the Fundamentals course. Intermediate and advanced courses assume you have built at least one model before, in any tool.
Yes. Live cohorts are recorded and the recordings stay available to participants, so a missed session or a different time zone is not a problem.
Yes — team and university rates are available, and any course can be delivered as a private workshop shaped around your own projects. See workshops
Participants who complete a course receive a certificate of completion. confirm CPD / accreditation status

Project delivery — modelling, LCA, compliance and low-carbon design support — runs through HPDLab rather than MaedX. Visit HPDLab
