Boost Your Skills with Pepco’s Operations & Maintenance (O&M) Training Program

Pepco is making it easier for contractors and building operations personnel to gain the skills needed to improve energy efficiency in commercial and industrial facilities. Through the Operations and Maintenance (O&M) Training program, eligible participants for a limited time can receive incentives that cover 100% of the cost of select training courses—up from $1,000 to $3,500—now through December 31, 2025.

Why It Matters

Energy use in buildings often comes down to how systems are managed day to day. By learning proven strategies for reducing and conserving energy, building staff can lower operating costs, improve reliability, and create more comfortable environments.

Note: Incentives are limited to one course per person each year.
