Attaining the LEED Green Associate will enable you to join the conversation about LEED and to understand how LEED works and how it impacts your projects or work flow.
A LEED AP credential signifies in-depth knowledge in green building practices and specialization in a particular field such as commercial buildings, homes, etc. There are five specialties: Building Design & Construction, Interior Design & Construction, Operations & Maintenance, Homes, or Neighborhood Development.

It is important to note that all candidates seeking to become LEED Accredited Professionals ("LEED APs") must first take and pass the Tier I exam for LEED Green Associate before taking the LEED AP exam. Once an individual has passed the LEED Green Associate exam, he or she has earned that credential. Individuals may then decide to proceed with taking the Tier II, LEED AP exam. Exams may be taken on separate dates or consecutively in one exam session.

Best to you both - I hope you hear positively from all your students soon!" - Kathy H.

I honestly can say I would not have passed without your class. Thank you for everything. I don't know if anyone else informed you, but so far we are 8 for 8 on passing. This is, no doubt, due to your course!" - PAUL B. JR., LEED AP PROJECT SUPERINTENDENT

"I just finished my exam - PASSED with a 179. I've had a fever and terrible cold since I left the class on Tuesday so I wasn't sure I'd make it. I loaded up on medicine this morning and just pushed through. I want to thank you so much. Your class was terrific. I wouldn't have passed without your class--thanks again. Oh, I will definitely refer people to your program and will come back myself for the LEED EB class and other programs you offer. Thanks again!!" - Patti B.
"You guys obviously did a good job in the class. I took the test today and passed, 185. I was in your class last week in Jersey City. I did not have the manual – your class was tailored perfect. Practice questions were right on as well. So much for waiting 3 weeks." - Jeff F., P.E.
"I passed the LEEP AP on Saturday! It was REALLY tough but glad it is over! Thank you for all of the great questions in the course handout – they really got me through the exam. I felt everything was covered well in the class – there were very few calculations on my test so that was a good thing! Thank you again!!" - Kristin L.
"I took My LEED AP today and passed with a 181 score! If you guys are interested, I can write a case study thank you letter to your office.

Taking the exam 5 days after the prep course and having no experience at all and no pre-course studying, I attribute my passing score to your course.Thanks a lot!"
