Low EMF Design & Build

A Professional Training Course

Created and led by Annie Scog, Certified EMF Technician & Building Biologist

As wireless technology becomes more embedded in our homes - from 5G infrastructure to smart meters and Bluetooth-enabled devices - electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure is an increasingly important health consideration for homeowners and design professionals alike.

This one-of-a-kind training course goes beyond awareness. It gives architects, designers, and builders the tools, strategies, and scientific grounding needed to incorporate EMF-reducing design into everyday projects - without sacrificing functionality or modern convenience.

Low-EMF Design & Build

A Professional Training Course

Annie draws upon extensive learnings from the Australian College of Environmental Studies (ACES), the Building Biology Institute (BBI), Boston Architectural College where she studied Environmental Science, Passive House training, and the International Living Future Institute.

Low-EMF Design & Build is the only course in Australia that integrates building biology, science-based mitigation strategies, and practical design application with the unique inclusion of geopathic stress taught by a certified practitioner. It addresses both man-made EMFs and natural earth energies an often-overlooked but critical dimension of healthy building.

With Annie’s rare combination of expertise Certified EMF Technician conducting regular home assessments, Building Biologist, Certified Geobiologist with the Australian School of Environmental Studies, and member of the NSW Dowsers Society you’ll gain practical, hands-on strategies not taught anywhere else.

This empowers you to design and build homes that truly protect health, meet rising client demand for safer living environments, and stand out in a marketplace where Annie is the only professional practitioner in Australia delivering this level of integrated training.

What You’ll Learn

✔️ Understand the biological and health impacts of both RF and ELF EMFs; including nervous system effects, sleep disruption, and long-term health implications, supported by international studies and building biology research.

✔️ Identify key EMF sources in residential and commercial design; Wi-Fi, hardwiring, appliances, solar inverters, smart meters, Bluetooth devices, and hidden background sources that most professionals overlook.

✔️ Apply zoning, layout, and building envelope strategies: learn how placement, orientation, and shielding choices during the design phase can drastically reduce occupant exposure.

✔️ Use shielding materials and technical solutions appropriately; from conductive paints, shielding meshes, ferrite cores, kill switches, and dirty-electricity filtration devices to best-practice installation methods.

✔️ Specify safer materials, lighting, and technology solutions; create low-EMF environments by choosing building products, LEDs, and wiring systems that support both health and energy efficiency.

✔️ Navigate international EMF guidelines and Australian liability considerations; understand standards from the SBM-2015, ICNIRP, BioInitiative, and the legal/insurance implications for design professionals.

✔️ Communicate EMF concepts clearly to clients; present risks and solutions in a calm, professional, and science-based way that empowers rather than alarms.

✔️ Integrate EMF health principles into sustainable design and high-performance construction; align low-EMF strategies with Passive House, Living Building Challenge, WELL, and other green building frameworks.

✔️ Address natural geopathic stress alongside man-made EMFs; a unique inclusion in this course, drawing on Annie’s expertise as a Certified Practicing Geobiologist. Learn how to assess and mitigate earth-based distortions such as underground streams and fault lines, giving you a holistic approach that no other Australian training provides.
