For those new to green building, this workshop offers an introduction to USGBC, green building principles and the fundamentals of the LEED Rating System. It includes topics on climate change and building impacts; motivators for green building; and conventional versus integrative approaches- and the associated benefits- to building design, construction and operations. This is the first step in building your knowledge of USGBC, LEED and green building practices and is a recommended prerequisite for any 200- or 300-level LEED educational program.
