The Phius team suggests some Phius and passive building-related new year's resolutions for 2025.
The Phius team suggests some Phius and passive building-related new year's resolutions for 2025.
There is nothing quite like the clean slate of possibilities offered by the new year. Despite being a somewhat arbitrary milestone, the completion of a full revolution around our sun provides hope that the 12 months ahead will be our best yet.
At Phius, we look forward to another year of rapid growth as our community continues its transformative work across the country and beyond. Our new year’s resolutions include planning the return of PhiusCon this October, updating several training programs, hosting a full slate of webinars and virtual programs, and much more.
But enough about our resolutions. In this blog, we will offer some suggested Phius/passive building related new year’s resolutions for those who are looking to get more involved in 2025. We hope you will stick to your resolutions this year – Phius-related or otherwise – as we all aim to make the most of the year ahead!
This is an easy one. For anyone looking to immerse themselves in the world of Phius and passive building, PhiusCon 2025 (Oct. 6-8 in Milwaukee) is the place to be. After taking a hiatus in 2024, the leading passive building event in North America is back and better than ever in 2025.
Information on early bird tickets and abstract submissions will be available soon, but early exhibitor space selection is now available if you are looking to exhibit.
The Phius Resource Library is the best kept secret in passive building. It contains a treasure trove of on-demand webinars, blogs, presentations, calculators, articles and more. It can be a critical tool when working on a Phius project and a life-saver when in search of last-minute CEU opportunities. Take a few minutes to peruse the Phius Resource Library this year – you won’t regret it!
Know someone who needs that little nudge to get into high-performance building? We are here to help! Our self-guided Passive Building Foundations Training is perfect for the Phius-curious, offering an introductory look at the world of Phius and passive building. With no specialized training required, the Foundations Training is the ideal entryway into the passive building community. If they aren’t ready for the Foundations Training, encourage them to check out one of our upcoming webinars to get a taste of what Phius is all about.
In conjunction with the release of the Phius 2024 Standard update, we introduced a new version of the Phius Certification Guidebook designed to eliminate conflicting guidance, more clearly distinguish certification requirements, incorporate more certification tips to support workflow optimization, and offer an overall more user-friendly experience. You can read more about the guidebook overhaul here (in the bottom section).
We know, we know, this one is obvious. But we would be remiss not to mention it here. If you aren’t already Phius Certified – or if you’re looking to expand your knowledge base and take advantage of growing business opportunities – 2025 is the year to take a Phius training course. From the new Phius Trades Training to WUFI workshops and everything in between, there will be a Phius training course for you in 2025. Check out our upcoming trainings and register today!
You didn’t think we would forget this one, did you? Whatever your project role, there is no time like the present to get involved with a Phius project. Utilize our Find a Professional database to assemble your team, and follow the steps outlined on our Submit a Project webpage to get your Phius project started. If you’re a seasoned Phius veteran, make 2025 the year you certify more Phius projects than ever before!
