Train the Trainer

Our Train the Trainer course is called Training Adults Effectively. This two day course is suitable for anyone involved in teaching adults. In this course, attendees will learn from a veteran instructor and will get the opportunity to both give and receive feedback on a brief training presentation that the student delivers the second afternoon. The course covers the latest breakthroughs in understanding how adults learn combined with proven principles of training adults using integrated media, designing training programs, and delivering presentations.

Green Rater

We are a RESNET-accredited Green Rater Training Provider and teach this two-day workshop that covers the fundamentals of green building. This course satisfies a pre-requisite for the US Green Building Council’s LEED for Homes Green Rater training, as well as other regional and local green building programs. Designed for Home Energy Raters (who will earn their certificate), it is available to other professionals as well.

Home Energy Rater (HERS)

We are a RESNET-accredited Home Energy Rating System (HERS) Rater Training Provider with one of the highest student pass rates in the nation - 80% of our students pass the National exam on their way to becoming a Home Energy Rater.
