6 Hours of Instruction: Earns 0.6 CEU / 6 PDH
Now accepting registrations for program beginning April 3, 2012
Presented online in a series of three live two-hour time modules, this seminar will show you how to use life cycle cost analysis as a means to quantitatively assess potential energy cost saving investments.

You can participate in the seminar from your office, home, or anywhere you have access to the internet and a phone. You'll have opportunities to interact with your instructor and colleagues in real time during the two live teleconferencing sessions.

ABOUT THE SEMINAR

AIA Learning Units Eligible


This course has been approved by AIA for continuing education credits. The AIA requires that its registered architect members earn 18 Learning Unit (LU) hours of continuing education credit annually (eight hours of which must be related to Health, Safety, and Welfare topics and four of those eight in Sustainable Design) to remain in good standing. Architectural boards in 40 states, 10 Canadian Provinces, and 19 countries have implemented mandatory continuing education (MCE) for re-licensure.

The Association of Energy Engineers is an approved training provider within the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Continuing Education Systems (CES) Registered Provider program.

Businesses and governments make important strategic decisions based on assessed financial benefits to their organizations. This program is designed to provide energy professionals with knowledge and practical tools they can use to identify cost-effective energy conservation measures (ECMs), energy conservation opportunities (ECOs) and demand side management (DSM) measures.

Going beyond simple payback analysis of energy conservation measures, the course will help you understand -- and be able to calculate -- important energy investment parameters, such as net present value, rate of return and return on investment. You'll leave the program with a better understanding of why an energy conservation measure, which may have a seemingly "long" payback period (e.g., 3-4 years), is in fact a good investment, often returning dollar savings more than two or three times the initial expenditure.

The seminar is designed to teach you:

  • Practical definitions of net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR) and savings-to-investment ratio (SIR), and how to calculate them for any energy conservation measure.
  • How to explain NPV, IRR and SIR to key decision-makers and customers so they will act on cost-effective energy conservation measures.
  • How to use LCC spreadsheets to quickly and accurately calculate NPV, IRR and SIR to select the most cost-effective ECMs.

As a participant, you will receive several complimentary LCC spreadsheets which you can use to conduct LCC analyses for yourselves and your customers.
