What:
Interested in getting involved in the Green Building Industry? Opportunities are plentiful in the field of sustainable design and LEED is at its forefront.
LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is simply a green-rating point system, or a scorecard. The more energy efficient and sustainable a building is, the more points it will earn. These points are earned through meeting credit requirements in LEED including integrated design, energy and water efficiency.
Just as Buildings can be LEED certified, people in the sustainable construction industry can become LEED Professionals. LeadingGREEN is offering a 1-day crash course for LEED Green Associate Exam Training, the first tier of LEED accreditation. The LEED GA credential is imperative in your pursuit of green and sustainable industry.
The cost of the entire course including 8+ hours of in-class training, 5 realistic mock exams and professional study guide is $200 ($150 for full-time students). The actual fee for writing the exam is governed by the GBCI and is $200 (www.gbci.org for more information). This course meets the eligibility requirements to write the GA exam. It is worthwhile to keep in mind that similar courses offered by other organizations cost $700+ (without exam fees).

1. Study guides and relevant materials will be distributed.
