On The Road

Dennis Feeney, Community Services Consortium (CSC) Weatherization Trainer, monitors student taking CSC’s BPI Building Analyst training in Newport.

CSC’s Workforce & Education Department took their show on the road when it came to training. Jerry McGuire and Dennis Feeney, both Weatherization Trainers, along with Project Assistant, Bryer Thompson took their mobile unit to Newport for BPI (Building Performance Institute) Building Analyst Certification training.

Four individuals took the training and successfully passed an exam to earn their certification after a week of training. Having certification allows its bearer to inspect homes for energy efficiency through a certified company or agency.

“This is our first complete training using the mobile unit,” said McGuire. “It was a complete success and we are on the schedule to do more training away from our Training Center in Corvallis.”
