Building Control programmes

These programmes provide site managers and supervisory staff with a practical, end‑to‑end introduction to building regulation compliance in Ireland, combining regulatory understanding with on‑site application.

It brings together core knowledge of the Building Regulations and Technical Guidance Documents with hands‑on guidance on managing compliance at site level, including certification, inspections, documentation, and interaction with statutory and professional stakeholders. The focus throughout is on translating regulatory requirements into clear, workable site practices that support compliant delivery of construction projects.

Participants gain clarity on their role within the Building Control (Amendment) Regulations framework, particularly in working effectively with the Assigned Certifier, while also developing an understanding of how Near Zero Energy Building (NZEB) requirements impact construction methods, materials, and sequencing on site. By integrating regulatory, procedural, and sustainability requirements into a single learning pathway, the programme equips site managers with the confidence and competence to manage compliance, reduce risk, and deliver projects in line with current building standards and energy performance obligations.
