Site Supervisor / Construction Verifier course
Improve your competences on Passive House construction sites - commissioning of energy efficient buildings - certification process of Passive House / EnerPHit projects.
This additional certificate can only be used in conjunction with a valid Passive House Tradesperson/Designer/Consultant certificate.
Additional certificates do not have to be renewed themselves. They are automatically renewed by the renewal of the main certificate.
In large and complex construction projects, practitioners and coordinators face many challenges, especially with regard to energy efficiency aspects.
Take a Site Supervisor course to get skills and knowledge that are essential to successfully executing complex and large Passive House and EnerPHit building design on-site.
Look forward to numerous examples and practical information about construction management, opaque and transparent building elements, airtightness and mechanical services and learn to assess the impact of your decisions on the construction site on the energy balance of the building.
Module “Commissioning”
Does the Passive House live up to its promise? Does the building really function as energy-efficiently in reality as planned? For this topic, the commissioning of the building is of the greatest importance - apart from the construction.
Take this course and get assistance for planning and executing the commissioning for MVHR, heating and cooling systems or shading. Learn about monitoring, data acquisition, measuring uncertainties and software tools for performance evaluation and optimisation.
Module “Navigating certification”
Afraid of high workload for Passive House certifications? No worries – just take this course to profit efficiently from the advantages of a Passive House / EnerPHit certification.
Become familiar with the certification process and criteria. Explore the consultancy service and the clear and helpful certification platform, get an overview about all documents you need. This will enable you to offer your client the benefits of Passive House / EnerPHit certification - effectively and cost-efficiently.
This course will prepare you to pass the additional Site Supervisor exam or the Construction Verifier exam. The exam itself however is not included in the course. It will be offered online.
On successfully passing the Site Supervisor exam, you will receive the additional certificate "Site Supervisor" - if you have a valid Passive House tradesperson certificate.
