this is somewhat hit and miss i can send you comments of energy models that
i have gotten reviewed, I have industrial refrigerated warehouses, core &
shell, etc.

I am looking for training.

What I'd like to learn.
How detailed to models need to be for LEED?  Do I make a stick figure or the
Mona Lisa
	Do I make one schedule for the building or one per room.
	Do I make unloading curves for the equipment or use the defaults.
	How is exhaust air from restrooms supposed to be handled.
	What is the baseline infiltration rate supposed to be.
	Does humidity need to be considered.
	Do I need to model the wall construction or can I pick something
close and type in the u-value
	What is the ft of heat for the baseline design if I use a boiler.
	
Not counting the rooms geometry there still seems to be over 500 (maybe
1000)
different values in Trace that can be adjusted.  Some large like the type of
system to small like is it draw thru or blow thru (or the Outside long wave
emissivity of the window which the architect still hasn't found for me).

I understand that when comparing different options (such as R value A or B)
the detail doesn't need to be on the gnat's ass.  So energy modeling at the
onset of a project isn't too hard to figure out. What is required for a LEED
reviewer to get a warm fuzzy from my model is the big question I'd like to
get training on.

The simple answer is to do it all, consider everything, but then reality
sets
in and I have a budget to consider.
