Now that you have received your BPI Building Analyst Certification it's time to enhance your skills and propel yourself and your company ahead of the competition. ITEC's BPI Envelope Professional certification course is a BPI residential specialization that focuses on the building thermal and pressure boundaries and the ways to enhance the envelope through insulation and airsealing techniques. As an individual this course will prepare you to understand not only how to analyze a home, but help you to understand why the process is so important. Every home is different and it is important to understand not only what is happening, but why problems related to the building envelope such as moisture, ice dams, mildew and drafts were created in the first place. The BPI Envelope certification in conjunction with the Building Analyst certification will make your company eligible to apply for Accreditation. If your firm is accredited or considering accreditation, you must have at least one employee with the envelope certification if you wish to perform insulation and air sealing work.
