passivehouse.ca (formerly the Canadian Passive House Institute (CanPHI)) is an educational website providing Canadians with the knowledge, tools and confidence to design and construct buildings which meet the world’s most radical and verified energy performance standard, the international Passive House Standard.
Since 2010 we’ve trained hundreds of Canadian builders, architects, engineers, tradespeople, designers, planners and homeowners in Passive House design and construction.
Nobody can build a Passive House on their own – we’re here to provide support and help build a strong Passive House community across Canada.
Unlike everything else in this world, our prices have not changed since we launched our online training program in 2019. We offer a training program that is fully compatible with the learning goals and standards set by the Passivhaus Institut in Germany, but which reflect Canadian climate and construction realities. Since we are dedicated to making Passive House the norm across Canada, our prices are approximately 70 – 80% lower than those of our competitors, for exactly the same training curriculum.
