Central Carolina Community College has been selected by the North Carolina Community College System to offer a Weatherization Faculty Training program. It will upgrade the skills of 36 instructors from community colleges around the state who teach weatherization - doing energy audits and upgrades to existing homes for energy efficiency. The program is funded by Workforce Investment Act money to enhance education for community college faculty. In one of the college’s regular weatherization classes, student Craig McNeal (left) and instructor Doug Dixon install a blower door fan to check for air leaks in a building. The weatherization class is part of the college’s Green Building/Renewable Energy program at the Chatham County Campus. For more information about the Green Building/Renewable Energy program, contact Laura Lauffer, program coordinator, at (919) 542-6495, ext. 236.
