Green Building Education has developed a training program, “Building the Green Home”, which is beneficial for not only contractors and trades-people in the residential building construction industry, but also for developers and homeowners. The Residential program was developed through collaboration between home builders/developers and crafts persons. This curriculum is essentially industry specific to new construction, but it also contains aspects of renovation/additions and modular/manufactured housing. It gives the attendees knowledge of current ratings systems and explores the categories of rating systems and tools. It also affords an understanding of the prescriptive systems that assign points to various conservation features, computational systems which use tools to estimate energy consumption and performance systems that assess the energy efficiency ratings based on past fuel consumption. The extent of field validation/verification of individual systems and tools is discussed. An overview of the use and implementation of a home energy rating systems; LEED®, Green Globes®, NAHB®, Energy Star, RESNET®, HERS® is also included. The Residential program meets the same high standards as our commercial offering and can adequately prepare the attendee for many of the industry’s certification tests.
