Green Roof Courses Approved for LEED Education Credits

The Green Building Certification Institute, established in January 2008, provides third-party project certification and professional credentials in green building performance and practice, including green roof course work.

Green Roofs for Healthy Cities announces its “Green Roof Professional” training courses have been approved as green building education by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC). LEED professionals can now use Green Roofs for Healthy Cities training courses to satisfy their credentialing requirements from the Green Building Certification Institute.

Hazel Farley, director of training and accreditation for Green Roofs for Healthy Cities, says their courses undergo a third-party review to ensure high-quality green building professional development education. She notes that over the last five years, Green Roofs for Healthy Cities courses have provided continuing education credits for professionals from the American Institute of Architects, the American Society of Landscape Architects and the Roofing Consultants Institute, to name a few.
