<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d">Before I jump on this rabbit trail – Malik you might try Chris Jones in the Toronto area, as a starting point. I’ve had the opportunity to collaborate with him
before and he occasionally posts here on the lists as well. If he isn’t immediately available for something like 1-on-1 training, he have some referral suggestions for that particular region. Hit me up off-list if you’d like some other recommendations for
remote trainers.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d">Here’s a cursory attempt at what I’m visualizing… I downloaded the complete current listing of BEMP professionals from
<a href="http://report.ashrae.org/Certification/list?type=BEMP" target="_blank">here</a> (there’s an ‘export’ to CSV link at the bottom of the page), then uploaded the first 250 entries (that’s a limit for “free” accounts) to <a href="http://batchgeo.com" target="_blank">batchgeo.com</a> and came up with this:
<a href="https://batchgeo.com/map/0f57af99a70da19d7d273e595a64a5dd" target="_blank">https://batchgeo.com/map/<wbr>0f57af99a70da19d7d273e595a64a5<wbr>dd</a><u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d">It would be a little more useful (particularly for larger regions) if I could somehow lookup the address for the listed companies with each individual – at present
everyone is grouped by State/Country, so you can for example click on New York State and cycle through the 18 entries uploaded.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d">Also it would be great to pick up more than the approximately 400 BEMP individuals for a tool like this. Perhaps there are more databases like the BEMP listing
we could add to the pot – does IBPSA maintain a similar (& public) member directory with company location information or similar? I think Julien is right in that even the IBPSA membership wouldn’t hit all the marks (the KC area doesn’t have a chapter yet),
but between these I think we’d be at a solid starting point. I think at one point there was a similar initiative with <a href="http://energy-models.com" target="_blank">energy-models.com</a> to develop a ‘trainers’ directory – maybe Bob can fill us in?<u></u><u></u></span></p>
