<p class=MsoNormal>Hi All,<br>
<br>
I am considering enrolling in a program to advance myself as an energy
engineer, or energy manager. Are there any Masters engineering programs that
would be helpful for excelling in the field and improving my marketability? Or
perhaps individual classes, or even trade school? I have had just about a year
of experience in energy modeling and auditing, and would like to learn relevant
concepts more thoroughly. I appreciate any suggestions.<br>
