CxA Credential Achieves DOE Recognition, ANSI Accreditation
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The AABC Commissioning Group announced that its CxA credential achieved accreditation by the American National Standards Institute, as well as becoming a recognized certification by the Department of Energy’s Better Buildings Workforce Guidelines program.
ACG’s CxA, or Certified Commissioning Authority, program recognizes independent building commissioning professionals who have demonstrated significant technical, management and communications skills. They must also have documented project experience in leading, planning, coordinating and managing commissioning teams to implement commissioning processes in new and existing buildings.
The combination of the ANSI and DOE “seals of approval” means that building owners, contractors, state or local jurisdictions, code organizations or others who want to ensure they are using a commissioning certification that is industry-accepted, third-party validated and ISO 17024-compliant can confidently specify ACG’s certified commissioning authority.
Additionally, this recognition ensures that the CxA is considered an approved commissioning credential for all federally funded projects. The General Services Administration has long recognized the value of commissioning citing commissioning agents’ “in-depth expertise with the commissioning process including verification techniques, functional performance testing, system equipment and O&M knowledge.”
The next opportunity for approved candidates to take the CxA exam is April 25 at the CxEnergy Conference & Expo in Orlando, Florida. A 12-hour commissioning workshop is also offered on April 24-25. For more info, visit: ACG’s Membership & Certification.
