Prolific Home Performance Diagnostics Expert Introduces HERS Rater Exam Prep, a Guided Self-Study Video Course Designed to Assist Professionals with RESNET Certification Exams and Refine Occupational Skills

CHICAGO, Sept. 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Standards for the residential construction industry have been given another push up the ladder with the launch of HERS Rater Exam Prep (http://RaterExamPrep.com). The online training, from the prolific Home Performance Diagnostics author Corbett Lunsford (http://CorbettLunsford.com), is designed as a low-cost supplement to HERS Rater Training, or for already-certified HERS Raters who want to brush up on their skills.

Homeowners and government programs alike have been demanding a growing army of HERS Raters, and even building energy codes are now recognizing the certification for new home quality control. "Rater Exam Prep has addressed a problem I'm reminded of constantly: that a week-long training is simply not enough," says Lunsford. His new modular, self-paced video course offers students all the information needed to put the finishing touches on preparation for the National Core Rater Exam and for real life in the business of HERS Ratings.

While Rater Exam Prep is not meant to take the place of a week-long hands-on HERS Rater Training (typically costing $2500), it does help students pass the exams the first time, ensuring a successful investment. Many people who seek RESNET certification have been out of school, and out of the habit of test-taking, for years. "HERS Raters are asked to specialize in such a huge range of subjects," laments Lunsford. "There's really no way for a week-long training to prepare someone for the actual work of HERS Rating. The only thing that makes you perfect is practice, and that's what this course offers."

The online course is self-paced, interactive, and includes 6 modules: two Rater Practice Exams of 50 practice questions apiece; a realistic set of plans for a practice HERS Rating, plus analysis and improvement; and personal video guidance from Lunsford on fine details that get glossed over in most trainings. Amidst a complicated muddle of accelerated HERS Rater courses and demands from clients and employers, Rater Exam Prep quiets the mind by preparing it.
