The first in-person edition of the SGBC Industry Course on WELL Essentials was held on 5 May 2026 at the Singapore Sustainability Academy Annex (SSAA) and explored how the built environment goes beyond bricks and mortar to influence our physical, mental and emotional wellbeing, equipping participants with a strong foundational understanding of the WELL Building Standard and its application in creating healthier, people‑centric spaces.
Delivered by Ms Emily Tan from SGBC Member Earth-In-Mind Private Limited, Mr. Mathew Howe from SGBC Member Grobrix also conducted a special sharing on the practical perspectives of incorporating greenery for wellness.
It is encouraging to see built environment professionals, from architects and developers to facility managers, engage in meaningful discussions on embedding health and wellbeing into projects and organisational strategies.
The next run will be held in September 2026.
