EEBA Track to be a Focus at the 2018 RESNET Building Performance Conference

A special feature of the 2018 RESNET Building Performance Conference is an EEBA track on The HERS® Associate & Taking the Performance Path: An Introduction to the HERS® Index & IECC Compliance.

This full day, three-part course is ideal for anyone new to the industry and reviews Building Science principles as they relate to the Performance Path option in the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC). The course will introduce RESNET and the HERS® Index, and relate the principles of building science as they apply to HERS. Explore the ERI/HERS® Index as a tool to

successfully design and build houses that comply using the Performance Path option, while meeting the minimum prescriptive code requirements of the 2015 IECC. Participants will learn about the guiding principles used by HERS® Raters to rate a home to produce a HERS® Index Score, and will spend the last part of the session reviewing energy rating software and manipulating construction assemblies to see the effect of energy scores.

Attendees who wish to earn the RESNET HERS® Associate designation will have the opportunity to take a brief test at the end of the session and, upon passing, will receive the RESNET HERS® Associate designation certificate. The fee for testing and processing the designation is $75, which can be paid on site by credit card or check made payable to EEBA.
