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.
Certificates of completion are issued directly through Udemy’s system and are only awarded when all course material has been completed, including passing the required quizzes. 

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:

• Technical – Strengthen your expertise in core chemical engineering areas such as process simulation, reaction engineering, heat and mass transfer, plant operations, and sustainable chemical processes.
• Emerging Technologies – Explore AI essentials, blockchain applications in chemical supply chains, and digital twins for process optimization, as well as advancements in energy harvesting and green technologies.
• Professional Practice – Develop critical soft skills including engineering ethics, project management, risk management, leadership, and technical communication to support safe and efficient decision-making.
• Interdisciplinary Perspectives – Understand how chemical engineering integrates with environmental engineering, industrial systems, and mechanical design to create holistic, real-world solutions.

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.
