Join the waitlist

No payment now. Just your early-access place and the founding-member price.

What you get

The credential, without leaving the job.

Self-paced, on your time

Work through it around the job, not the other way round. Start, stop and pick up where you left off.

The credential that wins work

The same Passive House Institute qualification as the live course, recognised internationally and increasingly required by main contractors and housing bodies on Passivhaus schemes. Your name goes on the PHI public register when you pass.

Exam included, with support

The PHI exam is part of it, with the technical setup and run-up support so you sit it prepared, not cold.

Far more cost-effective

Self-paced will be the most affordable route to the credential. Waitlist members lock in the founding-member price before it rises at launch.

Senan House, a certified Passivhaus office, the standard of build the course teaches
Same standard, your pace

Everything the live course teaches, online.

Passivhaus history and principles, insulation and the thermal envelope, airtightness and vapour control, thermal bridging, windows and doors, mechanical ventilation, heating and hot water, and full preparation for the PHI exam.

It is the same building science our certifiers teach in the room, being filmed and structured so you can work through it module by module once it opens, then sit the exam when you are ready.

The founding-member offer

The lowest price it will ever be.

Live and in-person training is priced by enquiry. The on-demand course will be the most affordable route to the same PHI credential, and the founding-member price for waitlist members will be lower still, before it rises when the course opens to everyone. It is our thank-you for backing it before launch.

Who teaches it

Built by the people who certify the buildings.

The on-demand course is the same material Tomás O’Leary and the Mosart team teach in person: the people who write the details, supervise the airtightness tests and certify the buildings. Mosart designed the first certified Passivhaus in the English-speaking world and trained more than 4,500 professionals.

FAQ

Before you join.

When does the on-demand course launch?

It is in production now. Join the waitlist and you will be the first to hear the launch date, with early access before the public and the founding-member price locked in.

Is it the same qualification as the live course?

Yes. It leads to the same official Passive House Institute (PHI) Certified Passivhaus Tradesperson exam and the same credential. The difference is the pace: you work through it on your own time instead of attending a live cohort.

Will it really be cheaper than the live course?

Yes. Self-paced delivery will be a far more cost-effective way to reach the same PHI credential than live or in-person training. The founding-member price for waitlist members will be the lowest it is offered at, and it goes up when the course opens to everyone.

Is the PHI exam included?

Yes, the exam is included, along with the technical setup for the online exam and support in the run-up. The exam is around three hours, taken online, with three parts: Passive House Basics, Building Envelope and Building Services.

What do I pay to join the waitlist?

Nothing. Joining the waitlist costs nothing and commits you to nothing. It reserves your early-access place and your founding-member price for when the course opens.

Can I put my whole team on it?

Yes. Tell us on the live course enquiry form and we will sort group access. Many firms combine self-paced on-demand for some of the crew with bespoke on-site training for the rest.

Get in before the doors open.

Early access, the founding-member price, and the launch date the moment it is set. Joining costs nothing.
