VELUX Skylights is a proud AIA sponsor. We are also deeply committed to enhancing architecture through daylight and fresh air to promote health and wellbeing in our built environments. That's why we offer a variety of Lunch & Learn opportunities that shed some light on modern daylighting in addition to helping architects earn continuing education credits to remain AIA compliant.
What is a Lunch & Learn?
At VELUX, we have created a number of courses to help architects earn continuing education Learning Units (LUs) each year. We administer these courses online or in person through hour-long sessions we call, "Lunch & Learns."
