iPHA Webinars
The iPHA Webinars are 60-120 minutes in length and are online conferences during which viewers can interact with the speakers, asking questions or discussing the webinar’s topics among themselves in the chat section.
Such events are a member-only benefit held via Webinarjam. Members receive an email from iPHA with the registration link and can sign up to take part in one of the two sessions offered.
Each webinar is offered twice (usually on the same day) to make it accessible to members across different time zones. Participants receive 2 further education credit points for each webinar they take part in. After the event, participants receive a link to re-watch the webinar if they so choose.
Webinars also have a ticketing system so that non-iPHA members can purchase access
to a webinar event that is of interest to them (30 euros).

Upcoming webinar | Wednesday, September 3
"Project Spotlight: A Brutalist Passive House EnerPHit icon: Hotel Marcel, Connecticut"
with Dragos Arnautu, Passive House Institute and Bruce Becker, Becker + Becker Associates
The upcoming Project Spotlight follows the journey of an office building designed by Marcel Breuer into a retrofitted EnerPHit hotel featuring 165 suites. The successful retrofit breathed new life into a building, aligning with modern sustainability aspirations.
The two speakers, architect Bruce Becker from Becker + Becker and the certifier Dragos Arnautu from the Passive House Institute, will give a detailed outline of how the retrofitting process went, what thoughts went into the planning and how the EnerPHit standard was reached. They will provide details on what it meant to preserve the intricate facade while insulating the building for thermal comfort and energy efficiency, the roof build-up, the windows and ventilation concepts.
For the audience, the goal of the Project Spotlight is twofold: On the one hand, the presentation will showcase an architecturally pleasing, interesting project, while, on the other hand, we encourage attendees to consider how they could transfer some of the concepts into their own work. During the Q&A portion of the webinar, attendees are encouraged to ask questions and go into detail on what interests them.
