TECHNICAL TRAINING

Energy Exchange

Dedicated to Meeting Your Training Needs

FEMP remains deeply committed to supporting the Federal energy management community in meeting the requirements outlined in:

  • 42 U.S.C. § 8262: Defining “trained energy managers” and requiring comprehensive programs to ensure proficiency in areas like building energy systems, codes, accounting, life-cycle cost, fuel supply, and instrumentation.
  • 40 U.S.C. § 581 (Federal Buildings Personnel Training Act – FBPTA): Mandating demonstration of core competencies within one year for individuals (including contractors) involved in building operations, maintenance, energy management, safety, and design.


Exploring Alternative Training: A Response to Travel Constraints

While we are disappointed to postpone the traditional Energy Exchange event, FEMP is committed to providing you with the same high-quality training and networking opportunities you’ve come to expect. We’re exploring a series of new training formats that build upon the foundation of Energy Exchange, and we will share more details as they become available:

  • July 2025 –  FEMP Pre-Event Workshops: We are considering virtual options for previously planned FEMP Pre-Event Workshops in late July 2025. 
  • August 5-7, 2025 –  FEMP Training Event: We intend to offer a training event during the original Energy Exchange dates. Hold these dates for alternative training opportunities. Note: This event will not include trade show elements.

 

We’re working diligently to create new solutions that still allow you to:

  • Connect with experts
  • Learn best practices for achieving energy efficiency and cost savings
  • Meet your training needs as defined federal regulations


Energy Exchange provides access to the latest information from skilled subject matter experts, leading-edge technical information, and valuable new professional contacts from the federal energy and water management community. Each technical training session represent a distinct learning event and most are accredited by the International Association for Continuing Education and Training (IACET).
