CPD 5 credits: Ref. No. SAIChE-474 Provider: Lacewing Engineering (SAIChE-SPV-015/28). Valid: 2025/10/02 to 2028/10/01 This CPD-accredited course provides a structured and cost-effective pathway for chemical engineers to maintain professional competence while meeting ECSA’s requirements for continuing professional development. The course integrates technical foundations with emerging technologies, interdisciplinary knowledge, and professional practice skills. Learners will engage with topics such as process safety (HAZOP), petrochemical systems, hydrogen and CCUS technologies, techno-economic analysis, and green chemistry — ensuring both depth in traditional areas and adaptability to new industry challenges. Delivered online through the Udemy platform, the course allows engineers to learn at their own pace, supported by quizzes and structured assessments that confirm knowledge transfer and ensure meaningful CPD engagement. Compared to traditional in-person training, this format offers a flexible and affordable solution without compromising on quality. Description Chemical engineering is a discipline that bridges science and industry, transforming raw materials into valuable products through safe, efficient, and sustainable processes. With the growing demands of energy transition, environmental responsibility, and rapid innovation in process technology, today’s chemical engineers must continually update their knowledge and skills. This ECSA-accredited Chemical Engineering CPD course provides a structured, practical way to achieve this — while earning 5 CPD points in a flexible and cost-effective format. The course is designed around the four CPD knowledge areas defined by ECSA:
Using a combination of expert-curated video content and structured quizzes, the course ensures accessible yet rigorous learning outcomes. Delivered 100% online and self-paced, it offers the convenience of fitting CPD into your schedule while providing a cost-effective alternative to traditional workshops or conferences. Whether you’re aiming to broaden your technical foundation, adopt innovative digital tools, or simply maintain compliance with ECSA’s CPD requirements, this course is a practical, high-value pathway to staying at the forefront of chemical engineering practice.

CPD 2 credits: Ref. No. SAIChE-468 Provider: South African Council for Automation and Control (SACAC) (SAIChE-SPV-014/28). Valid: 2025/08/04 to 2028/08/04 This in-person workshop seeks to integrate the rigorous mathematical foundations of model predictive control with a practical framework for its implementation, utilizing two commercially available software packages. The workshop will run over two days, with the delegates spending a significant amount of time doing workshops using exactly those tools that are used in industry. At the end of the workshop, delegates will have an understanding of both the concepts and the implementation steps of model predictive control. They will understand the pros and cons of linear versus non-linear MPC and be in a position to choose the appropriate technology for their solution. |
