This project achieved SSRIA’s priority outcomes by developing educational materials on residential deep energy retrofits (DER), mainly by creating an introductory DER Guidebook currently hosted on the SSRIA website, by producing introductory DER course material delivered via five (5) modules, and lastly by constructing physical DER wall example mock-ups for inclusion in SAITGBT’s existing wall library.

SAIT-GBT hosted multiple DER Discovery Sessions on the SAIT campus, followed by multiple pilot deliveries of the DER course material (both in-person and via webinar), all of which were attended by interested construction industry professionals, SAIT faculty/instructors, SAIT students, and building owners/homeowners.
