CPD in Construction: Earn Credits While Mastering AI Skills

CPD in Construction, Architecture & Engineering: Turn Mandatory Training Into Practical AI Skills

Every QS, architect, and engineer knows the annual CPD scramble, the frantic hunt for courses that tick the boxes without putting you to sleep. And it always seems to hit right when you’re drowning in deadlines, doesn’t it?

But what if those CPD hours didn’t just keep you compliant, but actually gave you skills that saved you time and headaches at work?

That’s where AI comes in. At the AI Institute, every hour of training with us earns you CPD points.

  • An hour on powerful new prompting techniques instead of another round of fire regulations.
  • An hour building dashboards that make your data tell its own story, instead of slogging through spreadsheets line by line.

Compliance, yes, but with skills you’ll actually use today, tomorrow, and for the rest of your career.

Recognised Across All Leading Construction Institutions

Whether you're with RICS, RIBA, The Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB), Engineers Ireland, or any other major accreditation body across the UK and Ireland, CPD isn't optional.
Miss your quota, and you're looking at fines, warnings, or compliance issues nobody wants to deal with.

Check out the annual CPD requirement below and then take a browse at our latest public courses.

Note: Requirements evolve - always verify with your professional body.

Why our AI Training Is Different

Traditional CPD helps you log the hours but rarely tackles the real issues that keep projects delayed, budgets overstretched, or teams under pressure. Our AI courses for construction experts, architects, and engineers flip that script. These aren't abstract lessons about the "future of technology." They're practical, hands-on sessions where you:

  • Learn which AI tools are worth your time (and which to ignore).
  • See live demos built around real workflows from construction sites to design studios.
  • Apply automation to challenges like forecasting, resource allocation, and project reporting.

The bottom line: you'll finish your CPD hours with skills that make your work faster, smarter, and more competitive - while still meeting every compliance requirement.

Whether you're in construction, architecture, engineering, consulting, or support services, these accredited CPD courses turn AI from a buzzword into a career advantage.

Two Courses. Maximum Impact.

  1. Microsoft Copilot Masterclass (3 CPD hours)
    Unlock Copilot’s full potential for real-time collaboration, reporting, and decision-making.
    Example: Eliminate email bottlenecks and get moving on those large scale projects.
  2. AI Core Skills (10 CPD hours) Transform your daily work efficiency with practical AI mastery and agent-powered automation. Example: Build reports, proposals, and presentations in minutes while safely handling company data.

The Double Win With AI CPD Training: Compliance + Productivity

The real advantage of AI-focused CPD is the double return:

  • CPD Credits: All courses align with professional body guidelines, so you can log them directly into your CPD portal for immediate recognition.
  • Productivity Boost: Clients typically see efficiency gains of 20% within the first quarter. One Dublin-based firm even automated 25% of their quoting process while earning 12 CPD points across our course.

It’s CPD that pays for itself - both in compliance and in operational results.
