Want to take the next step and become a certified energy auditor? This rigorous two-day course will give you a solid grasp of the steps involved in an energy audit, the techniques used, and how to apply them in the field.

An energy auditor requires a solid level of knowledge in a broad range of topic areas including building science basics; physics (heat transfer, electricity, human comfort); construction; math (including conversion factors and energy-related equations); as well as staying current with energy-saving products and techniques.
