Infrared Thermography Training for Building Professionals

Thermal imaging is one of the most powerful diagnostic tools in the building industry—and one of the most misused. The difference between a meaningful IR scan and a misleading one isn't the camera. It's the person behind it.

Who Are These Courses For?

These courses are designed for professionals who want to understand both the physics and the practical application of thermography in building contexts—not just how to operate a camera, but how to interpret what you're seeing and document it in a way that stands up to professional scrutiny.

Home & Commercial Inspectors

Seek to add a highly defensible, value-add IR capability to their inspection practice.

Envelope Consultants

Forensic investigators and building scientists diagnosing complex moisture and air intrusion.

Roofing Professionals

Contractors and consultants conducting precise QA or diagnostic work on low-slope assemblies.

Facility Managers

Property managers responsible for monitoring building condition and deferred maintenance.

General Contractors

Firms looking to add independent, in-house QA capabilities during the construction phase.

Energy Auditors

Sustainability consultants proving the efficacy of continuous insulation and air barriers.

What The Training Covers

Our curriculum is provided on behalf of the presitigious 'Infraspection Institute'. We also provide a tailored short-course that skips the generic industrial or electrical thermography theory and focus entirely on the built environment.

JEC offers training courses designed specifically to help you add a defensible, technically rigorous IR capability to your practice.

You won't just learn button-pushing. You will learn the specific physics of how building materials absorb, reflect, and emit heat.

Applied Physics & Heat Transfer Understanding infrared radiation specifically as it applies to building materials and environments.
Identifying Thermal Anomalies Learning exactly how moisture, air leakage, and insulation deficiencies present themselves on screen.
ASTM Standards & Protocols Mastering the standards that govern building thermography (C1060, C1156, E1186) and strict survey protocols.
Documentation & Reporting Avoiding common interpretation errors and writing reports designed for professional and legal contexts.
