Successful Execution of Deep Energy Retrofits is an advanced SAIT Micro-credential course focused on the practical implementation of residential deep energy retrofit projects. Participants explore project coordination, site safety, quality assurance, homeowner engagement, commissioning, and project handover practices required to support successful retrofit outcomes.
Designed for professionals working in residential construction, renovation, design, or related fields, this training is ideal for those who already have knowledge of deep energy retrofit principles and want to strengthen their ability to support project implementation. Applied learning and hands-on lab experiences reinforce best practices for delivering high-performance residential retrofit projects.
By the end of this training, learners will be able to:
Deep energy retrofits are an important strategy for reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in existing homes. Achieving these outcomes depends not only on effective planning, but also on proper installation, quality assurance, commissioning, and project coordination during implementation.
This advanced SAIT Micro-credential course prepares participants to support the successful execution of residential deep energy retrofit projects by applying building science principles, quality control practices, and commissioning processes. As Canada works toward a more sustainable, low-carbon future, skilled professionals are needed to help ensure retrofit projects achieve their intended performance and energy-saving objectives. By strengthening practical implementation capabilities, this training contributes to workforce capacity that supports building decarbonization and climate resilience
