RESNET EnergySmart Contractor Training & Certification

Special for NARI Members

Course Overview

The RESNET Qualified EnergySmart Contractor designation is a company credential. We highly recommend that contractors also have at least one individual become certified as a RESNET Home Energy Survey Professional (HESP) who can perform walk-through assessments of general energy performance problems and make basic recommendations for home improvements or further analysis. Learn how to help builders and architects positively affect building design using a whole house, total systems approach. [Learn About RESNET]

NOTE: Companies with a certified BPI Analyst do not need to take the EnergySmart training or exam, but they do need to sign up with a CEQ Provider in order to receive their EnergySmart certification.
