Why Certification
Energy audits, weatherization, and whole house retrofits are a growing new revenue source for a wide range of construction industry professionals. As energy audits are mandated nationwide, home inspectors and other BPI certified professionals can increase revenue through conducting energy audits. Construction professionals, such as remodelers and weatherization companies will benefit from additional revenue for home improvement services that enable homeowners to reduce energy consumption and energy costs. In certain states, BPI certification is required of weatherization agencies for quality assurance. Builders and remodelers need BPI certification to ensure that homes meet the 2009 Energy Code.

"Thanks for presenting the material in such a clear and teachable manner. I've owned my own weatherization business for 2 years and after your class I definitely have a better & deeper understanding of the mechanics that make a house more energy efficient. I left your class with the motivation to go after the other BPI Certifications. Especially, if you are the teacher."
