  • execution, management, and maintenance of building assets, including activities related to the regeneration and rehabilitation of the building and urban heritage;
  • collaboration in programming, design, and implementation activities for the organisation and transformation of the territory at different spatial scales;
  • use of integrated software and application tools based on the BIM (Building Information Modelling) approach, as well as the development of Digital Twins through the application of artificial intelligence algorithms, in order to enable comprehensive control of the building process from the design phase, through construction, and finally to the operation and maintenance of the built environment;
  • energy and environmental certification of buildings;
  • fire safety design and management;
  • design and management of energy production systems based on renewable energy sources;
  • organisation and safety management on construction sites, where completion of the relevant course (with compulsory attendance) allows the attainment of the specific professional qualification.
