Professional Development Seminars (Full- Day) 
 Short Courses (Half-Day)
Complying with Standard 90.1-2007
This course is targeted at design professionals, code officials and building owners.  ASHRAE Standard 90.1-1989, 90.1-1999, and 90.1-2001 have been the benchmarks for commercial building energy codes in the United States and a key basis for standards in more than 15 countries around the world. The 2004 version of Standard 90.1 included significant changes from the previous versions, such as reducing the number of climate zones from 26 to 8, refining a number of HVAC provisions, improving stringency of lighting power requirements, and adding an appendix with new, more flexible rules when using 90.1 for LEED certification. This course presents an overview of the 2004 standard, the addenda that are added in the 2007 version, the Standard’s requirements, and methods for compliance.
Complying with Standard 90.1-2007: HVAC/Mechanical
This course presents the HVAC/mechanical and methods of compliance from ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1-2007. Standard 90.1 is the benchmark for commercial building energy codes in the United States and in countries around the world. States are currently in the process of adopting elements of the Standard. The U.S. Department of Energy is also reviewing it in preparation for adoption as the new benchmark for state energy codes. This course presents an overview of the Standard and describes changes to the 2004 mechanical section that are part of the 2007 Standard. Design professionals, code officials and building owners will benefit from this seminar.
Exceeding the Requirements of Standard 90.1-2007
This course is targeted at design professionals and building owners.  Appendix G, a new informative appendix in 90.1 since 2004, provides specific guidance on the rules and procedures to use to simulation building energy use when the objective is to substantially exceed the requirements of 90.1. Appendix G is especially useful for energy simulations connected with LEED credits and with energy tax credits. This course presents an overview of Appendix G and explains its use through a number of examples using eQUEST.
