Space and Storage Planning Resources

Education Seminars

Continuing Education Courses

We offer complimentary, onsite educational seminars to architectural and design firms, corporations, and all others who are interested in learning for storage and workflow solutions. These CEU’s allows us to not only educate businesses, firms, and organizations about the many “stuff storage” applications there are out there, but also allows us the opportunity to learn from our audience as well.

Attendees receive complementary lunch during the hour-long seminar. The seminars are specific and we do not offer custom topic presentations, however, the speaker may address specific pre-determined issues if necessary. We do not allow electronic recordings of the seminars, but photos may be taken.

MAKING THE GRADE THROUGH VERSATILE DESIGN IN THE K-12 ENVIRONMENT

MAKING THE GRADE THROUGH VERSATILE DESIGN IN THE K-12 ENVIRONMENT

The environments and methodologies shaping the minds of young learners look vastly different today than they did even 5 years ago. No longer reporting to an assigned desk arranged neatly in a row, students now have opportunities to collaborate and learn all around the classroom and beyond.

Due to the changing trends in pedagogy, flexibility is needed throughout the K-12 campus to keep students at the center and enable their success. This presentation will explore how designing spaces that are flexible and adaptable can facilitate positive learning outcomes and support the health and well-being of the entire school community. Participants will see real-world examples of how storage has assisted in creating transformative learning spaces. In addition, attendees will learn how utilizing High-Density Mobile Shelving and other storage solutions can help support LEED® certification and
sustainability efforts.

GROWTH, CHANGE AND THE FUTURE OF PUBLIC SAFETY DESIGN

We all have a right to feel safe in our everyday lives, and for the most part have been afforded this right due to the efforts of those in the public safety sector. This presentation explores how utilizing proper storage solutions can support these individuals in protecting and serving their community. Participants will examine current trends and challenges within the public safety environment and explore real-world examples of facilities that have incorporated solutions designed to create workflows, improve processes, boost productivity, and increase officer morale. In addition, we’ll underline all the major planning requirements to consider such as floor loading, ventilation, lighting, and LEED® certification.

DESIGNING HEALTHCARE FACILITIES: IMPROVING PATIENT CARE, CONTROLLING COSTS, AND SAVING SPACE

DESIGNING HEALTHCARE FACILITIES: IMPROVING PATIENT CARE, CONTROLLING COSTS, AND SAVING SPACE

Space in healthcare centers is expensive to design, build, and occupy, and every cubic foot that’s used for storage is space that could be used for patient care. This presentation counters the misconception that storage space is “wasted” because it doesn’t visibly impact patient care and directly generate revenue. In fact, convenient and thoughtfully designed storage for supplies and equipment can improve productivity, patient care, and profitability.

Participants will examine challenges within the healthcare environment that affect workflows and the health, safety, and welfare of occupants; learn how FF&E can contribute to occupant wellness and LEED certification; and view real-world case studies.

PROTECTING AND PRESERVING MATERIALS FOR CIVIC, PUBLIC SAFETY, AND HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS WITH OFF-STIE STORAGE SOLUTIONS

Although the world is becoming more digital every day, analog materials like books, museum artifacts, and police evidence are still central to many institutions’ missions. This presentation explores strategies for safely and efficiently storing and providing access to these valuable materials in off-site facilities.

Participants will learn about trends driving the move to off-site storage, the storage requirements of analog materials, and the process of designing off-site facilities. We’ll also cover real-world cases involving a university, a police department, a museum, and a public library.

INTEGRATING STORAGE ACROSS CAMPUS: HOW ADAPTABILITY STARTS WITH FLEXIBLE STORAGE

Planning spaces for higher education environments is about much more than lecture halls and dorms – A campus is a place of learning and working, socializing and relationship-building, wellness and discovery.

This presentation will walk you through how to design facilities that not only help recruit & retain students and faculty, but also manage risk, improve efficiencies and safety, and help create flexible, future-proof spaces. This presentation will also outline trends and challenges that are impacting campus facility design and demonstrates how thoughtful storage solutions can help create highly functional interior spaces and directly influence the campus’ ability to achieve its mission.

TRANSFORMING LIBRARIES TO MEET USERS’ CHANGING NEEDS

Libraries have responded to the changing needs of the communities they serve, and are seeking to create more flexible, open, and technology rich spaces.
 
Architects and designers are required to design for flexibility and openness within existing and limited spaces. In this course, architects and designers will learn how to combat these challenges by using furniture, fixtures, and equipment that are able to reduce the amount of space being used for book storage and increase the availability of space with flexible FF&E. Through the proper design and use of mobile FF&E, designers will be able to design libraries that respond to up and coming trends.
