Join us for our dedicated, 2-day Owner's education for the 'HOW TO BUILD' of Passive House, net Zero energy, net PLUS energy.
You are serious about investing the time, money, and effort to build a new low-energy, high-comfort, high-performance home for yourself, or building for your business. Yet the closer you look, you are amazed to find that those you turn to for answers and solutions - don't have any.
Too many designers/ architects, too many builders, and too many vendor suppliers don't have answers to your questions, don't really know where to refer you for good answers, and wish instead you would just settle for the designs and building systems they know and want you to use. But don't worry, you are told. You can nail a few solar panels to your roof, and be as "green" as you want to be. All is not right, in the world of construction.
And this doesn't just happen a little. It happens a lot. You are not alone in sensing frustration with a broken system.
This is a key reason we created 'net PLUS' - to foster WIN / WIN / WIN building projects.
Education is the universal key.
You intuitively sense that the knowledge does exist. You can build a comfortable, affordable home or building to 'net Zero' energy and beyond:
'net PLUS Energy School' already educates builders, designers, and allied industry professionals in the practical "HOW- TO" of high-performance building. In addition, we recognized that effective project teams have knowledgeable, engaged OWNERS.
We have condensed our six-day, in-depth industry professionals' curriculum to a unique two-day class experience. Whether you are an Owner-Builder, an Owner project manager, or an Owner hiring those roles yet determined not to have your home or building become a low-performance three-ring circus - your comprehension of what it takes to make a successful project will leap forward.
Friday & Saturday - 11 & 12 October 2013

As an addendum to the two full days of instruction, owners appreciate being able to ask follow-up questions afterward which are more specific to their needs. Included in the tuition cost is a two-hour telephone consultation, to help you in your project decision-making process.
$425. per Couple. A "couple" simply means YOU plus one other person. That other person could be your spouse, your brother, your sister, other family member or friend. We are encouraging you to bring someone with you, and make it an enjoyable weekend excursion of learning and fun. (Yes, acquiring very useful, practical, clarifying knowledge that saves you time, effort, money, and promotes understanding and satisfaction - is FUN !)
We will soon have the registration for this event activated on our website, netPLUSenergyschool.org
In the interim, call or write if you have any questions, or are ready for us to add your name to our list of confirmed attendees.
