Who Are These Courses Designed For?
Building owners and developers seek to stay competitive by making their buildings more efficient. Mechanical system designers are increasingly encouraged to explore GeoExchange system options. This workshop equips mechanical designers with a comprehensive understanding of GeoExchange systems and the steps needed to design cost-effective, efficient, and predictable systems for long-term operation.
Developed for the International Ground Source Heat Pump Association, this course is accredited by the Association of Energy Engineers and eligible for 20 professional development hours (2 CEUs) with most engineering associations.
The course consists of 10 online sessions, each approximately 90 minutes long. These live, interactive sessions are led by experienced geothermal experts, real designers who have been involved in all facets of the geothermal heat pump industry for many years. Participants can ask questions and engage in discussions during the sessions. Videos of each session will be available shortly after for review. Additionally, participants can access all presentations as a series of 10 on-demand videos, allowing flexibility to learn at their own pace.
Throughout the course, participants can reach out to the instructor by phone, email, or video call for questions or clarification. You will also gain access to our geothermal feasibility assessment tool, ProFease®, for the duration of the course.
