Training

There are two main types of trainings we do here at Abraxas Energy Consulting: Metrix training, and Energy Auditor training. For the Metrix training, there are two flavors -- either "Introductory" or "Advanced," depending on your current skill level, each of which being 2 days long. The Energy Auditor training, also 2 days long, is for people looking to become energy auditors, or for current energy auditors looking to learn from our many years of experience. Our trainings are regularly held regionally, but we can also come to your facility to perform an on-site training. Click here or on the image above to view our regional training schedule.

Energy Auditor Training

Have you considering getting into the energy auditing business, either commercial or residential? You're not alone. There's a overflow of new energy auditors out there with little to no skill, and the majority of the trainings available offer no real-world training experience. We're here to stop that. Our training is guaranteed to teach you the skills you need for energy auditing, whether you're a newbie or a hardened veteran.

Metrix Introductory Training

We provide a two-day training session for new Metrix users. The session is primarily "hands-on" -- trainees are guided step-by-step through typical project set-up, entering data such as meter information, rate tariffs, sub-meters, as well as establishing baselines, correcting for weather, and communicating these results using the reporting capabilities.

Metrix Advanced Training

The session begins with a review of basic concepts such as meter set-up; entering bill and variable data; tuning; measures and modifications; rate analysis and modeling. The session then continues with advanced measures; retrofit isolation vs main meter methods; advanced tuning, modifications and modeling; report customization. Case studies will be worked on as well as discussion of "real-life" Metrix applications.

Here's what our customers are saying about our training...

“I was able to return to work and immediately apply most of what I had learned. Overall, I would strongly recommend this training session to anyone just getting started with Metrix.”

Tyler B. Humphreys,
Johnson Controls

“The material (was presented) in a fun, quick paced format that keeps your attention and helps you to retain the information presented. I would highly recommend these classes to anyone charged with developing building energy use models or performing energy accounting.”

Mike Willis,
Precision Control Systems, Inc.

"John was very knowledgable and was very good at relating to his students. He made everyone feel comfortable and confident, regardless of their knowledge of the product prior to the training. It made the atmosphere very open and inviting."

Jackie McCann,
Honeywell

"The Metrix training was definitely worth the money. It was a short enough course to keep me interested in the training, yet long enough to get the information across... It is now much clearer and easier for me to explain audits to customers."

Rick Goetz,
The Linc Group

"Since we began retrofitting facilities in September of 1997 until the end of April 2005, the University of Manitoba has saved over $19M on utilities. My Metrix energy accounting experience has been extremely successful!"

Mike Ferley,
University of Manitoba

"I think everyone using Metrix should attend the class to be familiar with the capabilities of the Metrix software."

Sally Breithoff,
Siemens Building Technologies

"The software was described to a bunch of engineers and a couple senior folks (non-engineer types) in a way they could understand the capabilities of Metrix, and in general, how it could be used to track energy use and energy performance."

Robert LaRose,
Pepco Energy Services, Inc.

"Both of these trainings (Introductory and Advanced Metrix) were very thorough and well worth the time. I am very glad I attended these trainings..."

Stephen Scurria,
Siemens Building Technologies

"A very classy, professional training with great accommodations."

Nancy Winship-Poole,
