Maintaining Your Rater Agreement

Energy rater agreements issued after Sept. 1, 2010 are valid for 3 years from the date they are signed into effect by Alaska Housing. Energy raters who have been issued energy rater agreements after Sept. 1, 2010, must meet the following requirements to maintain their rater agreement:

1. Maintain a current BEES certification
2. Maintain a current Building Analyst Certification from the Building Performance Institute
3. Notify Alaska Housing to any changes in your background status

Refer to the Rater Training Status Spreadsheet for Renewed Energy Raters to view your current status on certifications.

• For BEES Certification
• For BPI Building Analyst Certification
• For Change in Status

A minimum of 30 days before your energy rater agreement expires, the energy rater shall:

• Submit proof of completion of current BEES and BPI certifications
• Submit a completed Energy Rater Application (Word | Acrobat)

If a change in your background history has occurred, you must also submit:

• A Change of Status form
• A criminal background report generated not more than 30 days before the date it is submitted to Alaska Housing

Upon receipt and approval of the completed renewal package, Alaska Housing will issue a blank energy rater agreement. The energy rater must sign and return the signed original to Alaska Housing. Once signed by Alaska Housing, the energy rater will receive a copy of the executed agreement.
