What Is Oregon APEM?

The Oregon Association of Professional Energy Managers was founded in 1982 as a partnership of business, government and utilities. Oregon APEM seeks to advance the understanding and practice of efficient energy use through forums, newsletters, facility tours, and face-to-face dialogue. Oregon APEM provides a forum for energy and resource management professionals in Oregon and Southwest Washington to share information and to grow professionally. In 2006 Oregon APEM incorporated as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.

Oregon APEM members have a variety of job titles and come from a broad diversity of backgrounds. This diversity enlarges the scope of professional level information disseminated among the members. Oregon APEM members and their communities benefit from informed input into the design of utility programs, government legislation, and efficient business operations.

Upcoming Opportunity

Energy Management Certification Program – Registration is open!

The Northwest Water and Energy Education Institute (NWEEI) is now accepting registrations for its annual Energy Management Certification Program (EMC) (AKA energy “boot camp”). This year’s dates are July 8th – 19th, 2013.

During the two-week, in-residence block of instruction, students are immersed in energy efficiency fundamentals and practice in a hands-on learning environment. Students then return to their place of employment and, with NWEEI assistance, identify, develop, implement, and measure a workplace project over a year’s time. At the year’s end, students give a written and verbal presentation of their project and receive their Certificate of Completion.

The required EMC project guarantees an excellent return on the original training investment. Participants who have attended the course and completed projects have saved their organizations thousands of dollars in annual energy costs.

There is still time to register for the 2013 EMC but don’t delay – registration ends when the course reaches its maximum class size of 15 participants. Visit the website http://www.nweei.org/emc.html or call Roger Ebbage at 541-463-6160 for more information.
