Training in timber structures within LIFE Timber for All
The PEMADE-USC 2026 Training Course combines specialised education, innovation and knowledge transfer to bring sustainable timber construction solutions developed within LIFE Timber for All closer to professionals and students.
This week, the PEMADE-USC 2026 Training Course, co-funded by XERA, was officially launched at PEMADE facilities, with the participation of partners involved in LIFE Timber for All, including the Universidade de Santiago de Compostela, PEMADE and the Galician Forest Industry Agency.
Over the coming weeks, participants will deepen their knowledge of the behaviour, design and calculation of timber structures, combining theoretical and practical training, specialised software and laboratory activities.
The course will also provide participants with first-hand knowledge of the timber–concrete structural solutions developed within LIFE Timber for All, strengthening knowledge transfer and promoting more sustainable and efficient construction practices.
The programme will be delivered in person at the School of Engineering of Campus Terra, University of Santiago de Compostela, until 11 July, comprising 100 teaching hours and 10 ECTS credits.
