What you need to know

The NABERSNZ Practitioner programme recognises a need for knowledge and leadership around the NABERSNZ rating tool, without the necessity for an in depth understanding of the specifics of how ratings are achieved.

The Practitioner programme will prepare participants to take a leadership role in initiating and implementing a NABERSNZ certified rating and will provide an understanding of the tool requirements sufficient to knowledgeably contribute in the commercial office development arena.

This course is led by our very own Bobby Shen, Senior Manager - Existing Buildings.

The online exam will require additional time investment beyond attending the course and must be completed within two weeks of attending the course.

It certainly is! We provide morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea.

The NABERSNZ practitioner course is suited to those who :

  • work in-house in an owner or tenant company ( property, facilities, energy and sustainability managers)
  • are involved in the design and fit out of energy efficient buildings (architects, engineers, HVAC or lighting specialists)
  • Have a policy or strategic interest in energy efficient buildings ( council, professional bodies, government)

Upon completion of the NABERSNZ Practitioner course, you are allowed to register to the NABERSNZ Accredited Assessors course, when you meet pre-requisite requirements before being accepted onto the Assessor Training programme. If Practitioners meet those requirements they may be able to achieve this accreditation by completing Day 2 only of the Assessor training programme.
