ACG Announces “Essential Cx” Webinar Series

Sticky Post By On July 22, 2020

Group’s commissioning talent, depth & diversity of expertise put on full display!

The AABC Commissioning Group (ACG) announced that it will launch a multi-installment webinar series focusing on various venues and applications of the commissioning process. The presenters will include ACG member-companies, certified personnel, and affiliated associations. It debuts on August 13, 2020, running through December.

“ACG is proud to launch the Essential Cx Webinar series. The talent and diversity of expertise within our ranks is remarkable and this programming puts that on full display,” said ACG President Troy Byers, P.E. CxA (Commissioning Consultants, LLP).

“The ACG Essential Cx Series will take you behind the scenes to the commissioning of everything from mission critical facilities to major sports arenas. It features topics ranging from energy modeling, to building envelope commissioning, to the critical occupancy issue of our age: COVID-19. I highly recommend it for commissioning providers and anyone associated with building performance,” added Byers.

The first Essential Cx presentation highlights the commissioning and energy modeling work performed by ACG Member SSRCx on the innovative Chase Center Arena in San Francisco. The multipurpose arena features ambitious performance and sustainability goals specified by its owner, the NBA’s Golden State Warriors organization. Presenters are SSRCx’s Clark Denson, PE, and Eric Sheffer.

Subsequent ACG Essential Cx presentations cover topics including data centers, monitoring based commissioning (MBCx), building enclosure commissioning and more.

ACG is home to the world’s largest body of certified independent commissioning professionals. It created and administers the ANSI-accredited, DOE Better Buildings®-recognized CxA Certification, the premier credential for independent commissioning providers.

Certified Commissioning Authority (CxA) Workshop & Exam

8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
$650 (includes application fee, workshop & exam)
Note: Individuals who are interested in CxA certification must submit a completed CxA Application in advance of the test date to get approved to take the CxA exam.
 

CxA certification is open to independent industry professionals who meet all education and experience prerequisites and implement commissioning processes in new and existing buildings.

The CxA exam is a four-hour, closed-book exam consisting of 130 multiple-choice questions. The exam tests candidates on elements of the commissioning process, as well as general understanding of building systems and how commissioning fits in with the construction process. ACG recommends that all candidates thoroughly study the ACG Commissioning Guideline to prepare for the exam. Other reference materials are also available. Individuals who are attending CxEnergy may also want to register to attend the Workshop as final preparation for the exam.

8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
$1,150 (includes application fee, seminar & exam)
Note: all required documentation must be submitted with the application in order to qualify for certification.
 

The Energy Management Process Seminar is designed to help candidates understand the energy management process and how it can be applied and serves as the final preparation for the Energy Management Professional (EMP) exam.

This program is based on the process described in the Energy Management Guideline. The detailed, phased process uses a data-driven approach and is designed to achieve maximum energy efficiency while ensuring optimal building performance. The Energy Management Professional (EMP) designation raises the bar for energy-related certifications. The EMP is a “master’s degree” for individuals who provide independent energy services and have not only a deep understanding of energy concepts, but also an intimate, hands-on understanding of how building systems operate.

COVID-19 Update

 

Dear CxEnergy attendees, ACG, EMA & AABC members:

After taking into account the current COVID-19 situation, continued hotel restrictions due to the virus, current registration numbers and, most importantly, feedback from our members and other potential attendees, speakers, sponsors and exhibitors on their willingness to attend in-person, the ACG Board of Directors has made the decision to hold CxEnergy 2021 as a fully virtual event.

The Board did not make this decision lightly, holding biweekly discussions since November on the status of the conference. In the end, they concluded that because of the continuing uncertainty, pivoting now to a virtual event was the best decision. This will allow the event to take place during the month of April, while bringing the largest number of educational sessions to the greatest number of people.

Registration, including free access for members of ACG, EMA and ACG, will open soon. To see the complete virtual program, click here. Highlights of this year’s format include:

  • – Two live virtual presentations each week during the month of April (Tuesdays & Thursdays).
  • – A short virtual business session for ACG and EMA association updates.
  • – 8 additional prerecorded technical sessions available to members and registered attendees, for a total of 16 hours of educational offerings.
  • – A separate, dedicated “Technology Day,” designed to allow you to attend short, rapid-fire sessions with CxEnergy exhibitors over a period of a few hours, to keep up with their latest offerings in support of your commissioning, energy management, and testing businesses, as well as the opportunity to win a number of sponsored prizes.   

More information will be forthcoming soon. Please email [email protected] with any questions. We hope that you are all staying safe and healthy, and we look forward to seeing you virtually again this year and then in person again, finally, in Orlando in 2022!

Sincerely,

ACG Headquarters Staff
