*Please note that this is a repeat of the workshop held in person on 9^th December 2025. 

We are bringing together organisations from across Scotland’s built environment to help shape the development of a dedicated, industry-led Built Environment Cluster. This session hosted online by BE-ST marks the start of a wider engagement process to ensure that any future cluster reflects the real needs, priorities and opportunities within our sector. 

The Low Carbon Passport is a first-of-its-kind, accredited course designed to equip construction professionals with the critical skills and competencies needed to deliver low carbon, energy-efficient buildings across Scotland.  

This hands-on training course offers a practical introduction to building physics, helping learners understand how core construction products function and how to use them effectively.

Alongside trusted training provider Coaction Training CIC, we’re offering Passivhaus Practical Training designed for Tier 1 and Tier 2 contractors, architects, consultants and tradespeople delivering commercial, residential, public and educational buildings at scale.

The flagship event that will bring to a close BE-ST Fest 2025, explores the innovation we need to adopt at a system scale, to help us tackle the housing emergency, and deliver better, faster, more affordable housing regeneration solutions.  

The future of hiring will be transferable skills, not experience, but where can you hone new skills?

Join us for a unique opportunity to hear from Human Nature, the pioneering UK developer reimagining how communities are built - from first principles of sustainability, wellbeing, and design excellence.

Join us for an evening discussion which opens up an honest, practical conversation around the real barriers to delivering sustainable construction. We’ll bring together people from across the industry to speak candidly about what went wrong, what they wish they’d known, and how we can all do better next time.

Join Zero Waste Scotland for our workshop where you will be able learn about the CirCoFin project and participate in discussions which will contribute to findings for the wider project.

Building the Future: Skills & Inclusion for a Net-Zero Built Environment is an interactive dialogue-style workshop exploring how we can create inclusive pathways into the construction and net-zero workforce.

In this practical, hands-on session, you’ll get to explore WikiHouse, a low-carbon, modular building system that can be digitally fabricated from locally grown timber and natural insulation.  

In partnership with The Centre for Net Zero High Density Buildings (CeNZ-HighDB), Retrofit Scotland will be relaunching a case study library and knowledge hub, building on the rich work already done and looking ahead to the next phase of innovation.

This panel will explore how retrofit can move beyond isolated pilots to become financeable, scalable programmes. Through case studies, we’ll examine approaches ranging from replicating single projects, to managing portfolios, to enabling delivery at a city-wide scale.

Join Fleming for a short film and audience Q&A exploring the transformation of St Sophia’s Primary School in Galston, East Ayrshire, the UK’s first EnerPHit-certified refurbished school.

Get a brief overview in the working of domestic MVHR systems and some hands-on experience with the assembly of ducting materials and insulation. Learn what to watch out for to avoid common mistakes in the industry and get some insider knowledge in how to optimise the outcome.

Experience the Low Carbon Passport project in action with this hands-on, small-group demonstration session. Tailored for construction professionals and those training at SCQF Level 6, this hour-long workshop will offer a dynamic and tactile introduction to the project’s approach to skills development. 

For three years, the International Retrofit Conference has been a platform for the industry leaders, policymakers and innovators to come together and discuss the possibility. In 2025, we're cutting through the noise to tackle the real barriers of large scale retrofit.

Safe Schools for the Future offers new guidance for project teams so the UK can rapidly upscale the benefits from the high-health, high-comfort, high-performance, low-impact benefits that timber frame primary schools can offer.
