About this event
The construction industry is moving quickly towards greener, high-performance buildings, creating increased demand across the country for sustainable building skills.
This course teaches the foundational concepts of sustainability – and provides an overview of the essential strategies and work practices that make buildings more efficient, healthy, and resilient. GPRO covers the “green gap” between standard trade skills and the new awareness required to successfully implement sustainable and energy-efficient building practices.
This training is ideal for anyone who needs a better understanding of high-performance buildings, including sales or administrative staff in real estate, construction, architecture, or engineering, workforce development providers, facilities and operations staff, and college students interested in entering the building or construction industry.
What Students Learn
- How reducing building energy will reduce the effects of climate change
- Basic elements of green, high-performance construction, and building operations
- Role of trades on high-performance job sites
- Energy-consuming building systems and some strategies to reduce building energy use
