SKU: eco-eec-olt
If you provide services to homeowners as a General Contractor or as an Installer of HVAC, Insulation, Air Sealing, Windows, or other Energy Saving services, then you need to walk the talk when it comes to saving money. Energy Efficiency is top of mind for Americans. So, getting Certified as an 'Energy Efficiency Contractor' is the launchpad that will help you lift your business and secure your role in the new Eco-Economy.
The Energy Efficiency Certification curriculum has been developed by professionals that have taken the best of a diverse range of Energy Auditing and ‘Green’ training programs. Our team consists of leading Architects and certified Energy Auditors from Building Performance Institute (BPI) and Residential Energy Services Network (RESNET), plus seasoned Home Inspectors, Mechanical Engineers, MBAs, PHDs, and Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED AP) Accredited Professionals.
The focus is on Return on Investment to reduce utility costs and increase the health of homes across the country. The curriculum is focused on teaching individuals the most cost–effective ways for homeowners to create energy savings and healthier homes. Students learn about the Return on Investment approach and the home as an ‘organism’ vs. as an ‘object’. Students also learn the techniques that can save a homeowner $500 with just an hour of tune-ups that require no tools or expertise at all.
