Green Roofs – Installation and Maintenance

This training course is industry-leading – it provides a new industry standard of the required knowledge for installing and maintaining green roofs.

It builds on the knowledge and skills gleaned from Lantra’s ‘Introduction to Installing and Maintaining Green Roofs’ course. You’ll be given a deeper knowledge not only of Green Roofs – but also Blue Roofs, BioSolar Roofs, Shaped Roofs and Modular Roofs. It is perfect for you if you simply wish to know more about these new kinds of roofs. For example, perhaps you’re considering installing one? This course is also ideal for existing and aspiring green roof professionals, as it provides the foundation knowledge for greater competence. Ultimately, you can then become a certified ‘Green Roofs Installer’ via Lantra’s follow-on assessment only course.

To enrol on this course, you will need to have completed either of these Lantra courses:

  • Introduction to Green Roofs (training only course suitable for those aged 16+)
  • The Introduction to Installing and Maintaining Green Roofs (assessed training course only suitable for those aged 18+)
