May 7, 2012: Carrier's Latest Sustainability Symposium Series to Provide Green Building Training
SYRACUSE, N.Y. — Carrier is launching its third Sustainability Symposium series this month, providing consulting engineers, design-build contractors, and facility managers a one-day course on emerging trends and technologies associated with sustainable, high-performance buildings. The symposiums feature a hands-on look at Carrier’s Mobile Innovation Center, an 18-wheeler featuring the company’s sustainable products and energy service offerings. Carrier is a part of UTC Climate, Controls & Security, a unit of United Technologies Corp.
Carrier designed the symposiums to allow industry professionals to obtain and easily apply building and design ideas for sustainable high-performance buildings. Each symposium will provide information and standards from the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) and Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED®) Version Three. Attendees will be able to claim 0.2 continuing education units (CEUs) or 1.5 professional development hours (PDHs) for each workshop for professional licenses. With up to four workshops scheduled, attendees can earn up to 0.8 CEUs or 6 PDHs.
