Lighting and Control for Health, Well-Being, and Energy Savings

This course is no longer active. AEC Daily will not report completion information for this course.

Energy conservation and occupant health and well-being are issues of increasing focus in current building design strategies. Appropriate lighting design and control can address both issues simultaneously. This course explores those aspects of health influenced by lighting and the means by which lighting can be designed and controlled in order to increase occupant comfort, productivity, and overall physical and mental well-being and reduce energy consumption in a single, integrated design.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

  • Recall those aspects of human health influenced by lighting when designing lighting solutions.
  • Integrate natural and electrical light into lighting designs that support human circadian rhythms.
  • Contribute to improved occupant performance with appropriate lighting and daylighting control.
  • Specify the most energy-efficient and beneficial lighting control strategies.

Approximately 1 hour, 15 minutes. Delivered online, at your own pace.
