BPA Connections Becomes Free, Public Resource
Building Performance Association launched BPA Connections, an online community platform for members to access resources, network, and engage in industry initiatives. Now, the platform is publicly accessible with a free Basic Membership, including access to resources, discussion communities, eJournal articles, training and career development resources, and job search tools. Members can also upgrade to Professional or Company membership for more benefits and discounts. The platform features topic-based discussion groups, a resource library, member and contractor directories, and a Training and Careers Hub. Contact Robyn Hall for membership and access inquiries.
Members of the Building Performance Association began to use BPA Connections—an exclusive online community platform—after its launch a year ago. Here, users find resources, connect with other members and peers, and get news and information. They engage in key initiatives, take action, and grow their careers. Users say it is a joy to connect here, while making the world a better place!
BPA Connections became a vital hub of discussion, networking, and learning. Now, to expand industry education and thanks to E4TheFuture’s support, the platform is publicly accessible.
