Passing the LEED Exam: Limited to Work on Only One Type of LEED Project?

Question:


Jackie asks: Am I limited to only one type of LEED project if I pass the current LEED AP exam?

Answer:


Jackie asks: I am planning to take the current AP exam. If I take and pass both NC AND CI exams before deadline, will I be able to migrate to BOTH AP+ BD+C AND AP+ ID+C upon June 2009? Or I can only "covert" to one AP+ designation only?

Thanks!

Jackie

Answer:
Hi Jackie:
You do not have to take more than one LEED AP Exam (unless you are doing it purely to impress... consider us impressed!) Once you're a LEED AP with any specialty designation, you are able to work on ANY LEED project across all specialties. So you can migrate from BD+C, ID+C by passing only one exam, you don't have to take both exams.

Depending on which LEED AP Exam you take, that will be your specialty, but it doesn't limit you to one practice area.

Good luck!
