LEED Core Concepts & Strategies Workshop

8:00 am

Workshop Location:
Trane Learning Center
10408 Lakeridge Parkway Suite 100
Ashland, VA 23005

On-site sign-in and registration for the workshop begins at 8:00 a.m., and the workshop will take place from 8:30 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.

This workshop is intended for anyone who wants more than a basic understanding of LEED – including those with a stake in their company’s or community’s building practices, those directly involved in green building projects, and those pursuing GBCI’s LEED Green Associate credential.

The workshop provides essential knowledge of sustainable building concepts that are fundamental to all LEED Rating Systems. It begins with an introduction to the benefits and integrative approach to green building, and a brief background on the U.S. Green Building Council and LEED, including basics of the building certification process. The core of the workshop presents LEED intents and concepts at the credit category level – across building types and rating systems – touching on strategies, synergies, and specific examples that are reinforced by real project cases. Key LEED metrics and LEED referenced standards are addressed throughout the workshop. Interactive activities within the course keep you engaged and reinforce what you’ve learned.

This course provides the foundation required for any 300-level LEED education offering.
