Federal Energy Savings Performance Contract Training

The Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) offers specialized training about federal energy savings performance contracts (ESPCs).

Workshops and Webinars

Agency ESPC acquisition teams that train together are more likely to stay on track and implement high-value ESPC projects.

FEMP strongly recommends that agency acquisition teams take advantage of FEMP's free ESPC trainings because they offer agencies the opportunity to receive answers to questions about their own specific projects. FEMP offers the following training opportunities.

ESPC Comprehensive Workshop: This three-day workshop covers the entire ESPC process and introduces measurement and verification (M&V). This workshop uses examples of actual contract documents and exercises to teach participants about the details of ESPC project procurement. Workshops are held four times per year in locations across the country.

On-Site Training Customized for Agency Groups: This workshop, which is arranged by a federal project executive, is customized to meet agency needs and can range from a one- or two-hour executive summary for upper management to a four-hour, one-day, or two-day workshop. Contact a federal project executive to schedule this training at your organization.

Live Webinars: The federal project executive can arrange customized remote trainings typically geared toward introduction to the ESPC process ranging from one to four hours.

On-Demand Training

FEMP offers on-demand, online training courses and webinars through the FEMP Training Catalog. Some trainings offer International Association for Continuing Education and Training (IACET) continuing education units (CEUs).
