Market demand is growing for people with the training and skill set to design and construct high-performance buildings, and to install, service, and operate the electrical, heating and cooling, and other systems needed to run those buildings day to day.
Green Building Alliance offers training programs, workshops and education events that allow workers to gain new skills and stackable credentials, including Green Building Professional Operations & Maintenance (GPRO O+M); Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design Green Associate (LEED GA); Energy Efficiency 101; and more.
GBA embeds and adapts up-to-date curriculum to integrate with established construction trade educational programs.

“Bringing in LEED certified team members is very important to our business. Whether we are working on a LEED project where following LEED standards is required, or we’re working on a project that’s working towards sustainable building practices, having employees that really understand the tenets associated with LEED helps us think more creatively about things like waste diversion, keeping the air healthy during a project itself, so that employees aren’t breathing in contaminants while they’re working. We want people to go home safe and healthy, and having people that understand how to do that plays a very key role in hiring decisions.”
