About
COSC's Energy Efficiency Rehab
Training
COSC's training was developed
as part of a collective effort led by Iowa Central
Community College through a State of Iowa Energy
Sector Partnership grant to increase job skills
and effectively address Iowa's inventory of
existing homes and commercial buildings. The
result is Iowa's premiere Energy Efficient Rehab
Training curriculum for community colleges, with
accompanying free workshops being offered across
the state. The purpose of the program is to
share Iowa's quality green retrofit knowledge as
widely as possible, and teach how sustainable
rehabilitation can benefit our homes, businesses,
communities, health, pocketbooks and the
environment. More details
