Energy audit program from page 3 focuses more on building systems. Candidates must have a four-year en- gineering degree or a combination of a degree and energy engineering or management experience. Horstman noted that CEMs tend to approach audits from a building or system commissioning standpoint. BOMA Energy Efficiency Program—BEEP for short—is a program offered by the Building Owners and Managers Association. Developed in cooperation with Energy Star, the webinar-based training covers energy audit concepts as well as strategies for reducing energy use and costs. Participants can download webinars at their convenience, but won’t receive any hands-on training with audit tools. BOMA recommends the program for any professionals who are responsible for energy efficiency, but the training has a specific focus on facilities management. More training options More extensive training is available from the Environmental Outreach and Stewardship (EOS) Alliance and Building Performance Institute. Building Analyst Training and Certification for Residential Energy Auditors and Weatherization Professionals, a three-week programs that includes a week of field instruc- tion, begins Sep. 21 in Seattle. The program teaches students to perform a comprehensive home energy audit and prepares them for the BPI Building Analyst certification exam, a 100-question written test with a two-hour field exam. Prerequisites for the program, which are not as stringent as those for CEM training, include basic math skills and good physical condition. A general familiarity with home framing, insulation and structural components is recommended, but not required. Students may also choose to take a portion of the total course. A few targeted classes or workshops may be the best training investment for utilities that already have an employee with some of the skills needed to perform energy audits. Look for courses on residential weatherization, indus- trial systems or training for auditing equipment like infrared cameras or blower doors, depending on the focus of your program. States and counties may offer energy auditor training, so check with your regional energy office. One advantage of locally-offered programs is that they will often cover local building codes. On the down- side, Horstman points out, jurisdic- tions that have not adopted the most recent building codes often address energy-efficiency only minimally. Western-sponsored training When it comes to energy audit- ing, it seems that finding time and money for training can be as much a barrier as finding the right kind of training. So Energy Services wants to know: If Western hosted a work- shop, would our customers come? Would your utility consider sending an employee to a four-day Level 1 IR thermography certification class, or a two-day IR basics/weath- erization workshop? With Western absorbing some of the expense, student enrollment fees would be about $1,000 for Level 1 certification or about $400 for the weatherization course. Utility members would be welcomed, too. The catch is that we would need a commitment from at least 12 students. Contact your Energy Services representative if your utility would like to attend one of these workshops. If there is enough inter- est, Western would consider offering more training to help our customers add this valuable service to their energy management tool box. Learn to use IR camera One of the most valuable types of training is infrared (IR) thermography. Not only is an IR camera central to on-site energy audits, utilities will find many other applications for thermography. IR camera manufacturer FLIR Systems offers training through its Infrared Training Center (ITC). Courses cover basic to advanced thermography, building inspection, weatherization and more. ITC advises attendees to take the online tutorial in camera operation before attending an instructor-led class. ITC schedules classes throughout the year at locations across the country, although there are few that take place in Western territory. The cost for Level 1 certification is $1,750.
