FAQs
Quick Answers to Your BPI Questions
Who is this class intended for?
What energy auditing equipment will I need?

- Blower door
- Duct blaster
- Manometer (comes with blower door kit)
- Ambient CO monitor
- Mirror
- Combustion analyzer

When you register for this course, you will automatically receive energy auditing equipment discounts from leading equipment manufacturers, such as Retrotec, The Energy Conservatory, and TruTech Tools.
Are the exams included with this course?
Yes. If you take the blended version of the course, you'll complete your written and field exams at the end of the week.
If you took the online version of the course, you will need to find a home that meets the BPI Standard, obtain the required field equipment, and contact us to proctor your exam when you're ready.
How do I begin the online training?
How soon after taking my exam am I certified?
You will know your written exam score immediately upon completion. We are required to submit your field exam score to BPI within 24 hours. BPI will ultimately determine whether or not you passed the field exam and will share your certification status in their online candidate portal. BPI will mail out a paper certificate and ID card, within 4-6 weeks after certification is awarded. However, you may begin work functions immediately after you confirm your certification status online.
