It’s the Certificate of Proficiency in Benchmarking, a national, online, interactive training and certificate program for professionals responsible for tracking the energy and water consumed by buildings.”
“The new program is designed to educate users through a no-cost online training component on how to accurately collect building energy and water benchmarking data and use the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s ENERGY STAR™ Portfolio Manager® tool to benchmark building performance, and for a fee, certify participants who successfully complete the training and exam.” “Issued by the CBK, which is part of the College of Architecture and Design, the Certificate of Proficiency in Benchmarking is intended to be a national standard for benchmarking professionals to ensure quality of self-reported benchmarking data. The ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager tool has most commonly been used voluntarily, but cities, states and other jurisdictions are increasingly requiring its use to benchmark private-sector properties.” To learn more: benchmarkingcertificate.org |
