Learning to LEED Course

What is Learning to LEED?

Learning to LEED is an intensive two-day course offered to design and construction professionals interested in passing the U.S. Green Building Council's LEED Accredited Professional Exam. The course both facilitates exam preparation through slides, quizzes, study tips, and other resources, and provides the tools necessary for individuals to implement the LEED product suite as part of a design team.
