Building Performance Institute (BPI) announced its certification renewal policy has been amended to allow individuals holding multifamily certifications to earn continuing education units (CEU) toward written exams. 

Many believe home performance contracting (HPC) is on deck as the next big thing for HVACR contractors. And, while customers may not yet be aware of the term, once they understand that the practice may grant better comfort and safety, in addition to cost savings, many are quick to embrace the idea.

A recent letter to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) is requesting that ANSI withdraw Building Performance Institute Inc.’s (BPI) accreditation as a Standards Development Organization for “repeated violations of BPI’s approved operating procedures and specific requirements of the ANSI essential requirements.”

BPI is celebrating its 20th anniversary and the growth is staggering — nearly 40,000 certifications and 200 training centers across all 50 states have established BPI as a major player in the building-performance field.
