Dellbrook|JKS’ Passive House Builders and Designer Certification

Passive House is a set of performance-based building certification standards that focus on the significant reduction of energy demand while ensuring a healthy and comfortable building. Construction management firm Dellbrook|JKS’ PHIUS Certified Passive House Builder and Designer Training Plan allows all employees to start with self-paced online workshops through the company’s learning management system’s Passive House LearnList for foundational learning. Then those who want or need to continue on to PHIUS Professional Certification are enrolled in the two-week PHIUS certification training. The program consists of self-paced modules completed over one to two weeks for a total of eight hours of learning. Weeks 3-4 consist of eight three-hour instructor-led live sessions (24 hours total) for a deep dive on high performance enclosures, envelope field considerations, high-performance mechanical systems, cost optimization, and project management. The employees then must submit a written exam and achieve a score of 75 percent to become a PHIUS Certified Builder or Designer. Forty-eight Dellbrook|JKS employees are CPH-B Certified today. In addition to fostering Quality Control and Quality Assurance and building performance improvements on current Passive House projects and generating shareable lessons learned, the certifications have resulted in five additional project opportunities for the firm.
