Designing for LEED v5

What changes with v5 — decarbonization, resilience, and human impact — and what it means for the decisions on your project, taught by people who authored USGBC's LEED v5 education.

Decarbonization & green finance for owners

Turning building performance into financeable, disclosable value — connecting certification to capital, green-finance eligibility, and the owner and investor business case.

Reading certification requirements

A workshop for project teams on how rating systems actually score — where points are won, where they are often lost to misreading the requirements, and how to read credit intent before the required documentation is submitted.

Service as Software for green buildings

How AI-native services are changing certification economics — speed and consistency of software with the judgement of seasoned professionals on every decision.
