LEED, or Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, has become the defacto vocabulary for green building discussions and the LEED green building rating systems provide a straightforward methodology for verifying the level of green of a building. This session is intended for those who want to take a crash course in the most easily achieved LEED points based on historic data at USGBC. This session will help in various project situations — for the owner who wants to quickly become a bit grounded in LEED for a first project meeting with an architect or contractor, or for a designer or contractor who is part of a LEED project, but has little background.
