SUMMARY:Clean Energy Homes: How Realtors earn stellar referrals while boosting profits
DESCRIPTION:Register \nRealtors will learn new routes to increased profits as they guide clients to homes that are often superior on several levels: healthy\, safe\, comfortable\, durable\, resilient\, of higher quality and with lower costs of ownership. They’ll build expertise to realize higher sales prices and commissions\, faster marketing times\, stronger credibility\, and deeper personal fulfillment in their work. Those who’ve experienced living in a high-performance home treasure their homes! They testify to the quality of life and cost savings\, and this proof grows progressively stronger over time! These clients are even more than a good referral\, they’re advocates; one of the most valued assets any sales professional can have. Building on courses #1 & 2\, attendees will increase comprehension of why and how CE homes are outstanding. There’s a strong business case for Realtors! As they guide their buyers and sellers to CE homes\, they’re supporting their client’s best interests as well as the environment’s. Every house makes a difference! \nLearning Objectives: \n\nReferral Gold: Earn the strongest-ever referrals from extraordinarily happy clients\nExpand profit potential with the business opportunities of guiding clients to HP homes\nInform clients about benefits\, features\, and higher market values\nImprove selling effectiveness with compelling sales strategies and tools\nIncrease visibility of assets and benefits in listings and tour materials\nApply the whole-human approach to resonating with customers\n\nTarget Audience: Realtors\, & Sales Teams of Builders\, Developers\, Related Associates \nLearning Level: Beginner\, Intermediate\, Advanced \nContinuing Education Credits: 4 hours DRE  \nInstructor: Debra Little \nVisit https://ajo.earth/classes/ for more information.

SUMMARY:Health and Resilience of Clean Energy Homes
DESCRIPTION:Register \nHomeowner interest in our capacity to control indoor air quality and increase resilience has skyrocketed. Ventilation has been elevated from bathrooms to main living areas\, from a few seconds of exhaust to continuous delivery of fresh filtered air. Concerns around the ability to shelter in place during extreme events range from far-flung rural areas to cities. \nAir pollutants like respiratory viruses and wildfire smoke can be prevented from entering and overwhelming a home. \nThe certainty of a steady supply of clean\, filtered air would mean fewer days missed from school and sports activities along with better grades for our kids\, increased performance at work for adults\, reduced medical expenses\, and positive impacts on our local economies. Health insurance companies acknowledge this and are more frequently investing in energy upgrades\, particularly in low-income housing\, as a risk reduction; proven to be more cost-effective than the expenses of emergency room care and illness. \nMany efficiency improvements go beyond energy savings\, they also make homes healthier and more resilient during power losses\, fires\, and extraordinary weather. \nIt’s also possible that an efficiency project if not installed correctly\, can cause health problems. \nThe EPA\, in response to new research and the escalation in interest and concerns\, has created a new department – “Energy Plus Health”. \nDo assets that result in home resiliency and occupant health contribute to market value? What does the market tell us? \nRE pros pursuing expertise in Clean Energy Homes will advance their knowledge of potential improvements in home health and resiliency resulting from common efficiency improvements\, expanding their credibility as expert guides for their customers. \nCourse Highlights \n\nHow common efficiency assets improve health and resiliency\nHome performance elements vital to indoor air quality\nHealthy Housing Principles\nSmoke infiltration prevention\nCase studies of homes that survived wildfires\nExamples of resiliency in power losses\nConsiderations in marketing and valuation\n\nLearning Objectives \n\nComprehend the beyond-energy benefits of efficiency assets\nUnderstand what to look for in inspections and interviews\nAccurately describe specific efficiency assets and how they deliver health and resiliency\nCommunicate beyond-efficiency benefits in appraisal reports and listings\nEnhance your communication effectiveness with real stories of people who have experienced health improvements and tests of resiliency\n\nAudience \n\nExperienced appraisers\nAgents\nHomeowners\nContractors\n\nLearning level: Novice-advanced RE pros \nInstructor: Debra Little

SUMMARY:CEA/AEA Exam: Central Coast
DESCRIPTION:Register \nCertification as a Certified Energy Analyst (CEA) or Associate Energy Analyst (AEA) signifies that a consultant understands the California Building Energy Efficiency Standards (Title 24\, Part 6) and understands broader energy efficiency issues\, is committed to providing quality service to clients\, and that he/she has made a commitment to conduct business in an ethical fashion. Because CEAs have also made a commitment to ongoing educational requirements\, attending advanced industry training puts them on the cutting edge. \nCEAs are individuals who have demonstrated their mastery of the Residential and/or Nonresidential California Energy Standards through the following steps. \n\nPass the appropriate two-part (Multiple Choice and ACM Modeling) CEA Exam for Residential and/or Nonresidential.\nHave verified experience and/or education and other certifications related to Title 24 compliance work.\nParticipate in a Professional Practices Workshop (PPW)\, sponsored by CABEC.\nAttend at least nine hours per year of continuing education training.\n\nSince energy consultants are not regulated by the state\, CABEC designed the CEA to be a statement of an energy consultant’s working knowledge and understanding of the California Energy Efficiency Standards. When an energy consultant is a Certified Energy Analyst it is a statement to a building department\, builder\, architect\, or homeowner of the professional skills and knowledge of that energy consultant. This certification has become a highly regarded symbol of expertise within the industry and Title 24 compliance in California. \nTo prepare for the exam\, Energy Code Ace is offering a Residential CEA Exam Preparation Workshop scheduled for October 28th from 8:30am to 12:00pm.
