Are you looking to sharpen your skills, gain unique insights, and connect with peers in the field of building renovation? The EU Peers Learning Labs are here to help you do just that.

Join the EU Peers Learning Labs – Empower Your Skills in Deep Energy Renovation

EU Peers has designed a series of 7*3 Learning Labs to deepen One-Stop-Shops’ knowledge and capacities on home renovation. These interactive and highly-focused online training sessions are designed to boost your expertise on key topics related to deep energy renovation and the effective management of one-stop shops.

What Are Learning Labs?

Each Learning Lab is a mini-program consisting of three interactive online sessions, each around two hours long. The labs focus on a specific subject area and offer a mix of expert insights, real-world case studies, and peer-to-peer exchange. All sessions are held in English via Zoom and are completely free of charge and reserved to EU Peers Members.

But spots are limited! Each lab is capped at 20 participants, so register early to secure your place.

You can always register for the upcoming Learning Lab (coming soon in June 2025!), and you also have the option to pre-register for future topics—just tell us what you’re interested in and we’ll notify you when registrations open.
