The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) funded a series of research and training programs under the Advanced Building Construction with Energy Efficient Technologies and Practices (ABC) initiative. The aim is to develop new training programs to support the development of a skilled workforce in the building energy efficiency industry. In response, the University of Illinois Smart Energy Design Assistance Center (SEDAC), in collaboration with State Energy Offices in Illinois, Hawaii, and Nevada, developed the Community College Energy Code Training Program. The program is designed to prepare a new generation of energy-literate professionals that understand energy efficiency and its relation to energy codes for new construction and existing buildings through: a) the development of a curriculum and innovative pedagogical materials, b) dissemination through a national network of state energy offices: c) outreach targeting Community College students and instructors.
