CPD Opportunity – Net Zero for Building Officials

CHBA’s Net Zero for Building Officials online, self-directed training course has been designed to support building officials in understanding the requirements of the CHBA Net Zero Home Labelling Program (NZHLP), how these homes differ from ones built to meet minimum building code, and how builders and energy advisors are leveraging the Net Zero Home Labelling Program to optimize building performance, cost, buildability, and scalability. You’ll explore technical aspects such as wall assemblies, building envelopes and ventilation systems that underlie the Net Zero Home Labelling Program (and that meet and can exceed the National Building Code 2020 9.36 Tier 4 compliance).

Course modules include:

  • Introduction to and history of Net Zero Homes
  • Occupants and renewables
  • Advanced assemblies
  • Walls, attics and windows
  • Air quality, ventilation and airtightness
  • Net Zero regulations and incentives
  • Bylaws and zoning variances
  • Role of the energy advisor
