GBCI Reaches 10,000 LEED Green Associates

Washington, D.C. — The Green Building Certification Institute (GBCI) announced that it has awarded the LEED Green Associate credential to more than 10,000 individuals.

The LEED Green Associate exam tests for fundamental understanding of sustainable building practices and principles. It is specifically designed for those individuals who work in industries that support sustainable building, such as manufacturing, sales, policy, real estate, property management, law, marketing, and many others. It is also a starting point for students and professionals who desire to eventually become LEED APs with specialty.

The LEED Green Associate credential is a mark of recognition for professionals who may not have direct involvement on a LEED project but who work closely with the sustainable building industry in other capacities.

GBCI, based in Washington, D.C., administers the suite of LEED Professional Credentials. For more information on how to take the LEED Green Associate exam, visit www.gbci.org.
