Your Instructor: Colin Dumais has a Bachelor of Science in Environment from the University of Calgary, a diploma in Object Oriented Software Technology also from the University of Calgary and a is one of only 20 Canadians to have achieved NABCEP certification for the design of Solar PV systems. He is also, of course, C-NRPP certified as a radon measurement and mitigation professional.
Colin has worked professionally as a Software Engineer, a Technology Specialist and most recently as an Environmental Policy Specialist where he influences policy at the Provincial and Federal levels.
Colin loves to share his passion for renewable energy and energy efficiency so he has developed relevant educational curriculum and has presented many times on the topic to Universities and Colleges. Leading by example, Colin built a modern, low-energy home that will be powered completely by onsite renewables. Colin continues to use the principals of engineering and technology to design mitigation systems that operate efficiently and economically using enhanced diagnostic methods and procedures.
These days Colin has a new passion – after finding and mitigating radon in his family’s home – he founded Radon West Ltd where he works to raise radon awareness and ensure that mitigation systems are designed efficiently and are of the highest quality.
