The Virginia Center for Housing Research at Virginia Tech and the Residential Energy Services Network, also known as RESNET, are working together to educate builders on best practices for high-performance construction through the new netPLUS Energy School.
Andrew McCoy, an associate professor in the Myers-Lawson School of Construction and director of the Virginia Center for Housing Research at Virginia Tech, has been instrumental in guiding the curriculum development for the program, which will debut at Virginia Tech and then be taught in various local markets around the U.S.
McCoy developed the curriculum based on his experience in the construction industry and in developing and teaching courses for the Department of Building Construction at Virginia Tech as well as the extensive housing industry data gathered by the center's research.
