Urban Green Council just announced a new series of trainings for building professionals, including live and on-demand offerings focused on heat pumps.
Below is a quick overview of what’s on the schedule. But first – why are trainings a good idea for your staff?
Why Trainings?
If you’ve been thinking about transitioning to heat pumps for your property but don’t know how to get started (or what the process even entails), Urban Green Council’s trainings are a great first step. Making sure your equipment performs its best, is optimized for your space, and works efficiently is critical. Getting expert training can help to make sure your team – and your properties – have the best outcomes.
If you have questions, you’ll be able to connect with the Urban Green Council team at this year’s RealFocus. They’ll share more details about available Building Operations & Maintenance trainings and can answer any questions you have about how trainings can help your staff.
