LEED Study Sessions

Passing the LEED exam requires a working knowledge of LEED and green building as well as the ability to apply that knowledge to specific projects. These exam prep courses provide a review of LEED project administration, the credits and points in each LEED category, and how they are applied on real projects. Homework problems challenge participants to develop a working understanding of the LEED system. Exercises during each section will allow participants to practice applying LEED in the way they will be tested on the accreditation exam.

Experienced LEED Accredited Professionals run each course using a participatory approach for adult learners. All participants will need to study from the LEED Reference Guide and other primary references outside of the study sessions to prepare for and pass the examination.
