Building on the knowledge acquired through the Building Automation Systems Essentials course, the Advanced Building Automation Systems Optimization course provides detailed information on the design, diagnostic, trend monitoring, and control strategies that allow participants to operate their buildings with exceptional efficiency and energy management practices.

This one-day training program leverages a building automation system (BAS) diagnostic case study using real-time data to reinforce the principles taught in the course. The day also includes exercises to reinforce key concepts related to set point identification, scheduling impacts, identification of BAS optimization possibilities, sensor selection, and more.

By the end of this course, participants will have the ability to implement control strategies, scheduling, and design concepts in their building.
