SUMMARY:High-Performance Building for Carpenters (6 Part Course)
DESCRIPTION:Six 4-Hour Sessions from May 4th to June 8th.\nAbout the Class \nThis course teaches carpenters how to apply fundamental building skills to high-performance construction projects. Topics focus on the four layers of a high-performance house: water\, air\, vapor\, and thermal. Throughout the 6-week course\, students will learn high-performance essentials through building science lessons and hands-on practice with mock-up assemblies. The multi-faceted learning approach provides carpenters with a holistic understanding of high-performance construction from building science to install. Through classroom concepts\, hands-on training\, and project management overview\, this class is ideal for any carpenter who wants to excel in at high-performance construction.  \nRegistration closes on April 20th. \n\n\n\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				About SHPDC\n				Housed in a state-of-the-art Passive House facility\, StudioHPDC is a classroom and educational center for sustainable design & construction.

SUMMARY:Certified Passive House Designer CPHD Training
DESCRIPTION:Please note this course is primarily for Architects and Engineers but other professionals involved in building design and planning are encouraged to participate including Energy Analysts\, Planners\, Project Managers\, and Consultants.\n  \nThe Certified Passive House Designer Training is the premier training program for Passive House building professionals working on residential\, institutional\, and commercial projects. This course dives into what makes Passive House buildings tick and builds a foundation of knowledge and skill to integrate Passive House building design standards into any building project.  This course is specifically designed to teach the international Passive House Standard (PHI) to American professionals in the U.S. construction industry using IP units\, and is required prior to taking the CPHD professional certification exam. \nIn this course\, you’ll explore the Passive House principles and how they relate to\, and build off of\, each other. Learn about the performance-based standards that make Passive House buildings better than standard building codes because they work in all climates around the world\, can be applied to any construction types\, and allow flexibility in approaches. \n \n\nThe Passive House Network (PHN) is offering this in-person Certified Passive House Designer course specifically for Massachusetts professionals but others are welcome to attend. \nThe course spans 5 days in Newton\, Massachusetts at the Studio for High-Performance Design & Construction\, Newton\, MA. \n\nNote: All In-Person courses are subject to local COVID regulations AND require participants to be vaccinated.

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				Funding Grants Available\n				Funding: The Express Program from the Commonwealth’s Workforce Training Fund Program (WTFP) is designed to help businesses of all sizes respond quickly to emerging needs and keep employees engaged.
