Passive House Alberta is a non-profit organization dedicated to leading Alberta’s commitment to building sustainability.

The upcoming workshop will offer the first in a series of short courses to introduce the principles of Passive House design. The first one-day course is geared toward homeowners and others who want to learn how to incorporate Passive House principles into their next build or renovation to enjoy a more comfortable, healthier and affordable home.

RDC is committed to being a leader in sustainability initiatives and alternative energy generation. Since the launch of RDC’s Alternative Energy Initiative, the college has partnered with community organizations to provide learning opportunities in this growing sector.

Registration for the 9 to 4 p.m. workshop in November is $99 ($70 for Passive House Alberta members). Group discounts are available. For more information, visit passivehousealberta.com/courses.
