LEED GA (Green Associate) is your essential introduction to sustainable building and the LEED certification process. Since the United States Green Building Council (USGBC) was formed in 1993, it became clear that a system was needed to define and measure green buildings, leading to the creation of LEED – Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design.

The LEED GA certification course familiarizes you with the nine core areas of the LEED certification process: Integrative Process, Location and Transportation, Sustainable Sites, Water Efficiency, Energy and Atmosphere, Materials and Resources, Indoor Environmental Quality, Innovation, and Regional Priority. Understanding these areas is crucial for successfully navigating the LEED GA exam and advancing in green building careers.

Projects earn points across these categories to achieve one of four LEED rating levels: LEED Certified, LEED Silver, LEED Gold, or LEED Platinum. Our LEED GA training equips you with the knowledge to understand these rating systems and prepares you thoroughly for the LEED Green Associate exam.

Join thousands who have enhanced their credentials with the LEED GA certification and become leaders in sustainable design and construction. Start your journey with our expert-led LEED GA courses and gain confidence to pass the LEED GA exam on your first attempt.

The LEED Green Associate credential demonstrates a solid and current foundation in green building principles and practices. From marketers to lawyers, landscape architects to education professionals, and product manufacturers to policymakers, LEED Green Associates enjoy a broad understanding of sustainability that bolsters their careers and enhances their lives.
