Programme Highlights
The HKIE Fire Division CPD Training Course 2024 consists of six lectures covering the six domains of fire
engineering with case studies. It is suitable for field practitioners ranging from graduate engineers to
experienced engineers including veterans who are interested to join the Fire Discipline of the HKIE. It covers
a wide range of knowledge from building design, statutory submission to facility management. We are honored
to have eminent academics, experienced professionals, senior consultants and government officials who
possess substantial practical experience and rich knowledge to introduce concepts of fire science, human
psychology and physiology, active fire protection systems analysis, passive fire protection systems analysis,
law, regulations and standards, and fire risk management.
The course is specially tailored for a full spectrum of fire engineering-related professionals such as consultants,
surveyors, architect, project managers, facility managers and engineers of other disciplines, who interact
frequently with fire engineers or have been practicing fire engineering works and would like to better equip
themselves by taking a closer look at the doctrines of Fire Engineers or the latest fire engineering knowledge
through case studies.
