Become A Home Energy Score Assessor

1. Make sure you maintain your baseline credentials. GHI provides many free weekly live and recorded webinars to help you maintain your credentials.
2. Next, assess a home every 180 days; otherwise, you need to retrain online, though no mentorship is needed.
3. Unless you are part of some special program that either waves the HES fees or pays you directly back, the costs of each submission are corrected to $31.50 per assessment for GHI Members and $35.00 for non-GHI members billed out monthly by GreenHome Institute. There are no costs for submittals on GreenStar Homes registered projects.

All active home energy score assessors will now be sent a link to a special box.com invite; box.com will be used to do photo documentation for each home you visit so we can complete quality assurance on the home. It also helps if an issue or dispute arises in a real estate or contractor transaction based on home features; we have documented evidence of what was in the home per your assessment. In some ways, you can think of it as similar to a home inspector’s report. On the box file, we have two documents for you on how you need to capture and document information on box.com; in mid 2024, we will be doing additional training on that and will send further directions. Check your spam for the box.com invite to your file, and let me know if you do not see it. Note: If the box attempts to communicate, you need to pay them an access fee, which is not true. Please ignore it.
