April 2024 Pilot Project
We are now accepting applications for our April 2024 RFI and HERS Modeler Pilot Project. We will be accepting 5-10 candidates to receive training to become either a Rating Field Inspector (RFI) or HERS Modeler.
Candidates applying for this program will participate in a comprehensive intake and needs assessment process, and if selected will receive comprehensive training, ongoing mentorship and case management, as well as, job placement support at no cost. Either pathway will serve as an excellent starting point on the way to becoming a fully credentialed HERS Rater.
