Learn the latest LEED v5 BD+C Materials and Resources requirements, including embodied carbon accounting, building product selection, and construction waste diversion. Discover strategies for earning LEED credits while advancing sustainable building and decarbonization goals.
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.
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.

Learn how to use the METr software to support Phius certification compliance for single family buildings. Get introduced to the skills, workflow, and methodology needed to model a project using MET.
Learn the promise and pitfalls of LCA and EPDs, understand the categories of impact included in the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) process, and examine the boundaries of those processes - what is included and what is not part of the process. The session will compare LCA categories with the Common Materials Framework defined by mindfulMaterials and consider the history of political debate that surrounds LCA of building materials with added focus on impacts that lie outside of the LCA process.
Learn how the Existing Building Commissioning (EBCx) Offer from the Sponsors of MassSave® can help you identify and correct these inefficiencies, optimizing existing building systems and delivering low-cost, measurable energy savings.
Passive Building in Practice: Design teaches architects how to coordinate and deliver cost-effective Passive House projects through integrated design, airtightness, energy optimization, and construction quality control.
