The New Mexico Energy, Minerals and Natural Resources Department, in partnership with Doña Ana Community College, Northern New Mexico College, San Juan College, and Santa Fe Community College, is offering FREE continuing education and training opportunities for construction industry professionals.

Trainings will cover aspects of both the residential and commercial energy conservation codes and associated codes and standards in both live and/or online formats. Trainings will target the knowledge needs of both design/build industry professionals as well as code officials performing plan reviews and inspections. Professionals can attend trainings to fulfill CEU or PDH requirements.
