This course provides an
opportunity for energy efficiency staff to learn about healthy homes and
understand that energy efficiency is only one part of a safe and healthy home.
They become aware of a wider array of housing problems they will
encounter and may be able to address once they are working in a home.
The training can also provide an opportunity for
staff from healthy homes and weatherization programs
to meet and discuss common issues, including eligibility requirements, audit or
assessment parameters, the types of services each program provides to their
clients and opportunities for referrals.
Participants in the course
will learn about strategies for combining healthy homes and energy
efficiency work for more of a “one-touch” home improvement approach. This
approach is more convenient for the owner or tenant, is a more efficient use of
staff time and public funds, and it is a way to be sure that one repair does not
leave behind a bigger problem unbeknownst to a contractor only trained in energy
efficiency.
The course is still in pilot format. It has been
offered twice in October 2009.
Because this course is still new, there will be continue to be some ongoing
revisions to the materials.
