A self-paced track for advising owners on building automation, integration and analytics — specifying what a building actually needs, keeping it vendor-neutral, and making sure it delivers after handover. It covers six stages: what the consultant does and why owners need one, control system and protocol fundamentals, integration architecture, analytics and fault detection, cybersecurity and data governance, and pricing, clients and building the practice.
The recurring problem in this market is buildings full of systems that do not talk to each other and were sold rather than specified. Technical Skills College is independent and issues no certification, credential or licence.
