You’ll learn modeling software for multiple weatherization programs, and our proprietary CRM software which includes producing work orders, proposals, contracts, QC sheets and more.

Your training will also include supporting current Installation Technicians installing a range of energy saving measures into customers’ residences. This will include assisting on basic home repair tasks such as carpentry, electrical, and drywall, for air sealing, insulation, HVAC repairs, minor roof repairs, duct repairs and ventilation of bath fans and dryers. You’ll work closely with a Senior Installer to be trained on specific Energy Retrofit Installation & Weatherization work.

Your Manager will work closely with you to ensure your training & development are on schedule.
