First, thank you for your interest in LEED.

Second, you may wonder how we fit with LEED.  Our education partners are the largest USGBC Educational Providers in the world, and your success and education is our mission.  We are proud to have trained thousands of professionals from individuals to the largest corporations and government agencies.  The rest of this page will show you why LEED is being discovered by architects, contractors, engineers, real estate professionals, lawyers, and others who find that adding a LEED credential to their repertoire is taking their careers in new directions.
