SUMMARY:Online Field Auditor Training Certification Course
DESCRIPTION:DEADLINE TO REGISTER IS MONDAY\, JULY 7\, 2025\nDownload Registration Form \nOnline ABAA Training course \nPhysical installer manuals will be sent out. Those who register early will have a better chance of receiving their manual prior to the start of training. Having the manual for the online training modules is not required\, but highly recommended to have before writing the exam. \n\nDESCRIPTION:\nThis course emphasizes understanding the need for and function of an air barrier assembly\, the ability to inspect installation and review materials for compliance with specifications\, ABAA requirements\, and manufacturer requirements\, the ability to confirm proper installation through on-site testing\, and the documentation required throughout the air barrier installation process. \nMore Information \n\n\nNot an Auditor? \nABAA courses are open to everyone and are a great training opportunity for all\, including General Contractors\, Suppliers\, Manufacturers sales rep\, Architectural Reps\, and anyone in the construction industry. There is NO experience needed to attend one of our great training courses. \n\nInterested in performing ABAA project audits?\nPlease contact the ABAA office for details at abaa@airbarrier.org \n\nQuestions?\nPlease email us at training@airbarrier.org \nSee you there! \nDownload Registration Form \nCOURSE BEGINS TUESDAY\, JULY 22\, 2025 AT 10:00AM ET. IF YOU DO NOT RECEIVE A CONFIRMATION EMAIL WITHIN 3 BUSINESS DAYS OF REGISTERING\, PLEASE CONTACT US DIRECTLY. \nDEADLINE TO REGISTER IS MONDAY\, JULY 7\, 2025

SUMMARY:NIST Clearing House for Infiltration Modeling Purposes (CHIMP) 1.0 CEU/HSW
DESCRIPTION:NIST Clearing House for Infiltration Modeling Purposes (CHIMP)\nInfiltration is the unintended and uncontrolled air leaking into a building through intentional and unintentional openings. While infiltration has been used to fulfill outdoor air requirements in buildings\, it is not generally accepted as a “best practice” anymore. But how much infiltration can you expect in a building? Empirical models for infiltration are available but they were developed for low-rise residential buildings. This presentation will present novel ways of modeling infiltration in commercial buildings and the implications on energy use. CHIMP is the Clearing House for Infiltration Modeling Purposes\, which provides a central resource where users can obtain information\, data\, and tools to facilitate the modeling of infiltration in a variety of analysis tools (e.g.\, CONTAM\, EnergyPlus\, etc). Since 2012\, NIST has been developing models\, datasets\, and tools for estimating the effects of infiltration on heating\, ventilating\, and air-conditioning (HVAC) related energy use. CHIMP is the one-stop shop for your infiltration modeling needs and is updated when new work is released. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nUnderstand what infiltration is\nUnderstand the benefits of modeling infiltration properly\nUnderstand where to find infiltration modeling tools\nUnderstand how to incorporate novel infiltration modeling methods into your workflow\n\n Register Now \nLisa Ng\, PhD\, Acting Division Chief\, National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)  \nDr. Lisa Ng is the Group Leader of the Indoor Air Quality and Ventilation Group at NIST and has over 13 years of experience in research in airflow and indoor air quality performance in buildings. Her work is focused on airflow and indoor air quality performance in buildings\, with a focus on low energy buildings as well as energy efficiency design and operation strategies in general. She is active in the development of strategies for incorporating more accurate infiltration estimates in building energy models and the application of multizone airflow and indoor air quality (IAQ) models to a range of building performance issues. Lisa is an active member of ASHRAE and IBPSA\, and has collaborated with the ABAA Research Committee on projects related to infiltration modeling and quantifying the impacts of improved airtightness on commercial and residential buildings.
