Description
The CPHD course is the premier core Passive House professional training for architects, engineers, consultants, developers, policymakers, and more. The course is supported by the 30-year history of global technical leadership of the Passive House Institute.
Depending on your learning preferences, students can adhere to the course schedule recommended with Q&A and Review sessions or complete it more independently with a focus strictly on the on-demand content.
The purpose of the Q&A sessions is to interact and learn from a CPHD practitioner, hear their Passive House journey, ask questions, and connect.
The purpose of the Review sessions is to have an instructor-led review of key concepts and the calculations associated with them for deeper knowledge and necessary understanding for the exam.
No matter your learning style, upon registration, there will be a target exam date assigned to work toward, with an associated mandatory Tech Setup session, approximately 1 week prior.
