LEED Green Associate Exam Prep Course | Sept 11 & 12, 2025 | 9 AM- 1 PM

Location:  zoom.

Taught by Leslie Montgomery, LEED AP BD + C,  Vice President of Education, Green Building Alliance.

The Green Building Certification Institute (GBCI) created the LEED Green Associate credential to denote basic knowledge and understanding of green building design and construction. The LEED Green Associate exam tests general knowledge of green building practices and the concepts needed to support other professionals working on LEED projects. The Green Associate credential also serves as the first step for professionals pursuing a more advanced LEED Accredited Professional (AP) Specialization.  

 This workshop teaches the core concepts of the U.S. Green Building Council’s (USGBC) LEED certification program and helps participants effectively navigate both requirements and practical context relating to the LEED Building Design and Construction (BD+C) rating system. Through this course, participants will build a strong foundation towards successfully passing the LEED v4 Green Associate exam. The course and the exam are open to anyone, regardless of experience level. 

  This course is being hosted virtually and over two half-day sessions, divided into LEED credit categories that address different impact areas of the built environment. The course includes lecture content but will also encourage student participation and the sharing of insights and expertise among the group. A full schedule and an introductory video will be shared with registered participants so they can become familiar with basic concepts prior to the start of class.
