The Alliance is pleased to offer high quality HERS rater training classes in the Northeast, approximately 2-3 times per year. We have contracted with Performance Systems Development (PSD) to run this training. Our virtual HERS rater training classes have an online modules component (two weeks), which includes all of the building science theory, and a “classroom/field” practical training component (one week) on Zoom, which includes all of the hands-on practical training and testing that is necessary to prepare to pass the rater exams. Our comprehensive training package includes everything a student needs to be well prepared to embark on an exciting career a HERS rater. Due to Covid-19, the “classroom/field” practical training component will be conducted live over distance learning. Students will not have to travel to attend this training. HERS rater training is the first step towards rater certification. To learn more about the requirements for certification, click here. Both online and classroom components are required for certification.

This course has been approved by the Massachusetts Workforce Training Fund, which has funds available for employee training. Please visit our website for details about how to apply.
