SUMMARY:IES: The LED Dilemma Webinar (1 CEU)
DESCRIPTION:The LED Dilemma: Rethinking LED Sustainability \n\n\n\nPresenters: Rachel Fitzgerald & Anne Kustner Haser\n\n\n\nExploring solutions for repairability\, longevity\, and responsible design. \n\n\n\nThe first generation of LED luminaires—once seen as groundbreaking—are now reaching the end of their life. Unlike traditional lighting systems\, these integrated LED products often cannot be repaired or upgraded\, leading to costly replacements and significant waste. This challenge isn’t just technical—it’s systemic\, impacting sustainability goals\, design practices across the industry and our client’s budget. Join us as we explore why this is happening\, what it means for the future of architectural lighting\, and how we can work together to create solutions that prioritize longevity and circular design. \n\n\n\nRegistration for this event ends on February 5\, 2026 at 9 am PST. \n\n\n\nWebinar participants are eligible for one (1) IES Continuing Education Unit (CEU).

SUMMARY:Webinar: Beyond the Lighting Specialist
DESCRIPTION:Event Details \n\n\n\nBeyond the Lighting Specialist – What’s Next? \n\n\n\nDevelop your skills beyond Lighting Specialist. Take the next step and be prepared to provide professional and usable design services in addition to selling products. Peter Romaniello will guide you through ways to create more advanced plan specifications for your clients/customers. \n\n\n\nThis two-day virtual class takes place from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 2:30 PM to 4:30 PM on Tuesday and Wednesday\, March 24 & 25\, 2026 – Central Time. Each session will be recorded for review at a later time. \n\n\n\nThis class includes 8 hours of virtual training and 8 CEU Credits. \n\n\n\nWhat to include in a specification \n\n\n\nLearn what a specification is and what should be included in your design plan. \n\n\n\nHow to write a schedule vs. a quote \n\n\n\nWhen writing specifications\, your responsibility changes from writing a quote to writing specs that everyone on the project can read and understand. \n\n\n\nHow to successfully and fairly charge for your services \n\n\n\nDon’t give away your expertise. Charging for your design services is vital for generating revenue as well as enhancing your value and credibility. Your clients should not expect free drawings when visiting a showroom. There are various ways to charge (and we will discuss them)\, but you must be sure your clients understand that your time and expertise are valuable and separate from the sale of products. \n\n\n\nHow to go beyond basic in a lighting plan \n\n\n\nWe will examine the impact of a lighting plan and how to make these plans readable to the customer or contractor. We will look at different ways to improve the appearance and professionalism of your plans while making them quick and effective. \n\n\n\nHow to incorporate controls into your sales and plan \n\n\n\nWhere does your job with controls start and end? Today’s projects require more than just selling dimmers. We will talk about how to design control systems and what your responsibilities should be. \n\n\n\nAdditionally\, we will discuss balancing recessed with decorative lighting/ceiling fans and selecting the right linear fixture for your clients’ needs. \n\n\n\nClass dates/times via Zoom: \n\n\n\n10:00 AM – 12:00 Noon & 2:30 PM – 4: 30 PM (Eastern Time)
