As the industry prepares for the next evolution of LEED, our LEED v5 Webinar Series offers a practical, insider look at what’s changing – and what it means for your work. This multi-part virtual series kicks off with Resilience + Human Health Impact. Explore how LEED v5 integrates climate resilience and occupant wellbeing through tools such as the RELi Resilience Rating System and Human Health Impact Assessments to help project teams design buildings that protect people and communities.
Existing building commissioning (EBCx) provides a tune-up to achieve better performance, save money on utilities, improve occupant comfort, and extend the life of your building.This 1-hour webinar is suitable for building owners, operators, consultants and design professionals working with clients on existing building retrofits to comply with Massachusetts' building performance standards.
Learn how to use THERM software to evaluate thermal bridges, heat transfer, and moisture risk in building enclosure details. This 10-hour live virtual course teaches building professionals how to analyze the thermal performance of opaque assemblies and fenestration systems, identify condensation and mold risk, and improve energy-efficient detailing.
This course is specifically designed to teach the international Passive House Standard to professionals in the U.S.
The Phius Certified Builder Certification is for tradespeople and construction professionals with field experience in construction and/or high performance building. This training prepares construction professionals to understand passive building techniques — airtight enclosures, high-performance window installation, passive design strategies, field quality assurance, and site management. For a project pursuing Phius Certification, these professionals ensure the building is built and operating to the plans and specifications. They are responsible for executing air-sealing and thermal bridge mitigation.
This training is intended for Architects and Engineers. CPHCs learn to design to the Phius Certification climate-specific building standard. Projects earning Phius certifications (Phius CORE, Phius ZERO and Phius REVIVE) follow RESNET QA/QC protocols and achieve excellent HERS scores, US Department of Energy Zero Energy Ready Home status, and adhere to EPA indoor airPLUS requirements.
As the industry prepares for LEED v5, this training offers a practical, insider look at what’s changing. Designed for general contractors, construction managers, and trade partners—this webinar will help you align frameworks like the Contractor’s Commitment and manage construction-phase requirements such as waste diversion, indoor air quality (IAQ), and ESG reporting.
Join this 1-hour webinar to learn how commercial building decarbonization, energy efficiency upgrades, electrification, and renewable energy strategies can reduce operating costs, improve building performance, increase resiliency, and help achieve Building Performance Standards through real-world case studies and Decarbonization Planning Assessments.
PH 120: The Architect's Role in Passive Building is an introductory course for practitioners who have completed PHMass' PH101: An Introduction to Passive Building or have equivalent experience. Moving beyond foundational building science, this session focuses on the architect’s practical responsibility as the central coordinator of a performance-based design.
Join this 1-hour webinar to learn about the benefits of a Portfolio Decarbonization Roadmap—maximize energy savings, take advantage of incentives, and tackle aging equipment across a portfolio.
