SUMMARY:Tools for Building Life-Cycle Assessment (Part B )
DESCRIPTION:Building design professionals are invited to join Part B of this course to expand on the concepts and tools introduced in Part A. \nThrough in-tool demonstration\, participants will learn advanced features of the LCA tool\, Tally\, and the specification and procurement tool\, EC3. Participants will learn how to interpret LCA results and use the output to meet LEED credit requirements. During this session\, participants will learn how these tools can inform design decisions and project specifications to achieve a reduction in the embodied carbon of their buildings. Participants will also be introduced to carbon baselines and benchmarks\, and how they may be used in the design process. \nLearning Objectives: \n– Learn to evaluate the environmental impact of building materials through the use of life-cycle assessment (LCA) \n– Learn to interpret and communicate results from an LCA \n– Learn to utilize industry tools to evaluate the environmental impact of a building \n– Learn to conduct an LCA that meets the Whole-Building Life-Cycle Assessment requirements of LEED v4 and v4.1″ \n  \nThis course is taught by Vaclav Hasik\, Data Manager at Building Transparency at Building Transparency. \nBackground photo by engin akyurt on Unsplash \n  \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Education Credits\n				 \nPart A: Earn 4 LU|HSW unitsPart B: Earn 4 LU|HSW units \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Funding Grants Available: Submit by March 24th\, 2022\n				The express grant is designed to help businesses of all sizes respond quickly to emerging needs and keep employees engaged.

SUMMARY:Introduction to the Passive House Standard
DESCRIPTION:About the Class \nPassive House goals and methodology change the way architects and builders think and work\, making the architectural design itself a driver of climate\, health\, and social solutions. This is a 4-hour course that dives into the basic principles\, history\, certification\, and the new frontiers of Passive House design as it continues to challenge and change industry expectations. All theory is then illustrated through several case studies outlining specific Passive House principles. This course is provided by The Passive House Network. \nParticipants will need to provide their own laptop with internet capabilities. \n4 AIA/HSW Continuing Education Units are available for this training. The Passive House Network is an AIA Continuing Education Provider.  \nGraphic background photo is a rendering of 201 Hampden via Placetailor \n\n\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				About PHN\n				The Passive House Network (PHN)\, formerly known as NAPHN\, is a high-performance building literacy program. We provide comprehensive\, high-quality Passive House education to stakeholders across the building industry – from architects and engineers\, to builders and developers\, to regulators and policymakers. We demystify the impact of design and construction choices\, form knowledge-sharing networks\, raise expectations\, and transform how professionals fundamentally think and work. \nPassive House is widely recognized as the most powerful tool we have today to produce buildings that rise to meet our challenges\, forming the cornerstone of climate mitigation and adaptation\, public health\, and equity impacts. Read The PHN Difference\, for a description of what makes us uniquely positioned in the US building industry. \nOur Vision: A sustainable\, post-carbon\, all-renewable energy future – supported by buildings that are efficient\, comfortable\, affordable\, resilient\, and healthy. \nOur Mission: The transformation of the built environment\, using the tools developed by the Passive House Institute\, is a critical effort to combat global warming. We provide training\, conferences\, and other events to both engage and educate design and building professionals\, policymakers\, and the general public. We support the success and vitality of the Passive House community. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Why Should I Attend this Course?\n				Gain a foundation in passive house principles that can influence all your building projects\, including single-family\, multi-family\, mixed-use\, commercial\, and industrial. \nDevelop the background needed to pursue further education and certification in Passive House. \nExplore case studies of passive house buildings from a variety of projects. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Who Should Attend?\n				\n\n\nThis course was developed for a wide range of student profiles include architects\, MEP and structural engineers\, facade\, energy and sustainability consultants\, contractors\, developers\, policymakers\, regulators\, and more. \n\n\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Learning Objectives\n				By the end of this course\, participants will be able to:  \n\nOutline the basic principles of the Passive House Standard \nOutline the history of the Passive House Standard \nCite specifics of a few Passive House case studies\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Funding Grants Available: Submit by March 24th\, 2022\n				The express grant is designed to help businesses of all sizes respond quickly to emerging needs and keep employees engaged.
