Congratulations to the newest graduates of LEC's Green Building Operator program! After 8 weeks of covering conservation principles, energy-saving water, lighting and electrical practices, new technologies such as Building Automation Systems and Controls Graduates, and more, these graduates are now ready to take on rewarding placements in building operations.

As Canada struggles to reduce GHG emissions in its built environment, it needs trained, motivated building operators to ensure that new zero carbon and energy-retrofitted industrial, commercial, institutional and multi-unit residential buildings are operated to specification. It’s one thing to design zero-carbon buildings, another to construct them and yet another to operate them. If they are not operated to specification, GHG reduction targets will not be met.

The only course of its kind in Canada, the program is funded by the Home Depot Charitable Foundation. A 2022 pilot was funded by the Future Skills Centre, through the Canada Green Building Council.
