In addition to some great sessions at this year’s High Performance Home Summit, we also offered the opportunity for attendees to earn the High Performance Builder and Site Supervisor Designations.

“Thrive Home Builders is excited about the EEBA Site Supervisor and High Performance Builder Designations,” says Bill Rectanus, Vice President of Operations. “These designations give our team the basic building science and project management training they need to build our high performance homes. They also provide Thrive an opportunity to give our team valued industry designations that they can carry with them throughout their career. We are proud to have several of the first EEBA designations be earned by members of our Thrive team.”
EEBA is also pleased to announce that 17 people earned the EEBA Site Supervisor Designation, led by Michael Baechler, proving their knowledge in the processes and best practices of building science for residential construction projects.
