Building Vocabulary—How to Talk About Energy

Instructor: Andre Jean Description: This one-hour class focuses on building a shared energy vocabulary for the built environment. Participants will explore common energy-related terms as they appear in energy codes, policy discussions, and project coordination, with an emphasis on clarifying intent, avoiding misunderstandings, and improving communication between technical and non-technical audiences. The session is designed to help participants speak more precisely about energy without needing to become subject-matter experts.
