IndEco and The MEARIE Group continue to offer CDM Specialist certificate program
Thursday, 23 December 2010
In 2010, twelve CDM professionals earned their CDM Specialist certification. The very first graduate, Ms. Linda Boyer of Halton Hills Hydro, was featured in the November edition of the EDA Distributor (available here). The first eight graduates are pictured here, and the four most recent graduates are pictured here.
After the success of the 2010 courses, IndEco, in partnership with The MEARIE Group, is continuing to offer the CDM Specialist program. Courses are designed to be both stand-alone courses, to enhance understanding of specific aspects of CDM, and to be complementary to form a cohesive program. Upon completion of all seven courses, CDM professionals will earn a CDM Specialist certificate.
Courses provide in-depth and up-to-date training on energy conservation and demand management with a focus on the Ontario market. Each course uses a mix of slideshows and lectures, facilitated group discussions, and individual and group exercises.
