Final Technical Report for Building Operator Certification (BOC) for Building Technicians.

摘要

The work completed under this grant expanded the capacity of the Building Operator Certification (BOC) program to better serve the skill enhancement needs of the commercial building technician workforce to achieve DOE's goal of net-zero energy commercial buildings. The project created five significant product performance and delivery enhancements which have been fully integrated into the national BOC program and are being actively used in well over 25 states across the country to train and certify building technicians. These enhancements include: (1) A skill standard for building operators in energy efficient building operation; (2) Ten training modules comprised of 40 hours of curriculum in energy efficiency; (3) One online module for integration in a blended learning format; (4) Twenty pilot modules delivered to 300 building operators; (5) Full integration of the new modules into the BOC Level I course scheme, and (6) A commercialization and sustainability plan.
