As a nationally recognized credentialing organization for residential energy efficiency retrofit and weatherization professionals, we recognize that knowledge, skills and abilities are prerequisites for successful work. That’s why BPI’s comprehensive standards for home performance contractors are used as the basis for home performance curricula by independent training organizations throughout the country. BPI does not conduct oversight on the training process nor does BPI provide training directly to individuals. Instead, BPI maintains relations with organizations across the country who serve as proctors and field examiners for the BPI credentialing examination process.
Educational programs, including classroom theory and hands-on field training, are provided by a coast-to-coast network of independent training organizations, including private companies, community colleges and local not-for-profit agencies.
Prospective students should evaluate the knowledge, skills and abilities provided by a training organization in order to be confident when challenged by exams or when performing the quality of work demanded by homeowners and energy efficiency incentive and weatherization assistance programs.
