Energy Advisors Needed!
 
Clean Nova Scotia is accepting applications for the position of
Certified Energy Advisor (certification training provided). Positions
are currently available in Halifax Regional Municipality although
positions may also be required in other parts of the province.

Candidates will have proven knowledge and skills in the following areas:
*	building construction practices, 
*	building materials (insulation types, sealants, etc.), 
*	building science, including the principles of the "house as a
system", 
*	computers, computer file management, the Internet and e-mail, 
*	energy efficient appliances, 
*	basic arithmetic and geometry, 
*	client relations, 
*	communication skills (both written and oral), and 
*	environmental public education and outreach. 

A computer, printer, internet at home, and access to a vehicle are
required. 

Selection Process
Selected candidates with relevant backgrounds will be interviewed. The
interview includes a prequalification test to measure the level of
understanding of various required technical knowledge.

Training 
Qualified candidates undergo a standard course of training which
provides most of the skills needed to become a Certified Energy Advisor
and perform ecoENERGY evaluations. This course is followed by training
files that the candidates must complete before writing the national
certification test, and becoming certified as an energy advisor. 

Employment Status
We are currently experiencing a high demand for the ecoENERGY program.
Despite the current popularity of the program it is important to keep in
mind that we are subject to the federal and provincial funding
priorities, and to seasonal fluctuations in demand.
