This presentation will give you the basics of LEED building certification and professional accreditation. It also demonstrates the strong case for how LEED certified buildings have higher occupancy rates, rental rates and sale prices than standard buildings. For more info, see www.usgbc.org

34. LEED v3
•Harmonization
Credits and prerequisites from all LEED commercial and institutional rating systems have
been consolidated and aligned. Credits and prerequisites are consistent across all LEED
2009 rating systems.
35. LEED v3
•Credit weightings
LEED 2009 credits will now have different weightings depending on their ability to impact
environmental and human health concerns. LEED now awards more points for strategies
that will have greater positive impacts on what matters most – energy efficiency and CO2
reductions.
Sustainable Sites - SSc4.1: The proximity of a building to public transportation
reduces single-occupant vehicle use. It also affects a building’s carbon footprint
associated with transportation to and from the building. LEED for New Construction
2009 has increased the point value of this credit.
Water Efficiency Credit Category: Reduction in water use associated with
irrigation outside the building and fixture/fittings use inside the building has
impacts on resource depletion and water shortages.
Energy & Atmosphere - EAc2: Utilizing renewable energy for a building’s
energy needs reduces dependency on less environmentally sound energy sources.
Using renewable energy impacts a building’s carbon footprint.
36. LEED v3

38. 3 WAYS TO BE A GREEN
PROFESSIONAL
1. LEED Green Associate
For professionals who want to demonstrate green building
expertise in non-technical fields of practice, GBCI has created the
LEED Green Associate credential, which denotes basic knowledge
of green design, construction, and operations.
The Green Associate credential also serves as the first step for
professionals pursuing a LEED AP specialization.

2. LEED AP
The LEED AP credential will continue to signify an advanced depth of
knowledge in green building practices. It will also reflect specialization
in a particular LEED Rating System.
The LEED AP exam is divided into two parts. The first step is the LEED
Green Associate exam, which demonstrates general knowledge of
green building practices. The second step is a specialty exam based on
one of the LEED Rating Systems. These parts may be taken together or
separately.

3. LEED AP Fellow
(Under Development)
GBCI is developing a third designation, currently referred to as the
LEED AP Fellow credential.
LEED Fellows would become part of an extraordinary class of leading
professionals distinguished by their years of experience and
contributions toward continuous improvement in the green building
field.
