Massachusetts Energy Codes Trainings for 2010

For Building Code Officials, Builders, Architects, HVAC Professionals, Home Inspectors and any other professionals affected by code changes

Classes will be offered again this fall.

Please check back for dates and locations


Two code enhancements for 2010 — the mandatory adoption of the latest version of the IECC (IECC-2009) and the optional Stretch code — will introduce not only incremental changes over the 7th Edition, but also several significant departures from the current (and previous) editions of the code.

To orient building professionals to the changes, the Massachusetts Board of Building Regulations and Standards (BBRS) and Department of Energy Resources (DOER) will sponsor two separate technical training classes — one for residential and one for commercial code changes.

NOTE: NEW BUILDING OFFICIAL ENERGY TRAINING REQUIREMENT
At its January meeting, the BBRS added a new section to the building official certification regulations that requires building officials to obtain training in energy. The Massachusetts Energy Code Trainings satisfy the new energy training requirement. If you are an active code official please email training@cetonline.org or call 413-586-7350x240 to register and have the fee waived.

CEUs available for AIA, BBRS, NAHB, NARI, ASHI and BPI (residential only).

With any questions call: 800-369-3333 ext. 301

Training sessions will be added during the fall of 2010.

Sponsored by the Massachusetts Board of Building Regulations and Standards and the Department of Energy Resources.
Presented by the Center for Ecological Technology, Conservation Services Group, and Energy & Resource Solutions.
