What can you do with a leed certification?
This question is a little tricky because it depends on what you are asking. I will assume that you are asking about becoming a LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Accredited Professional, or Green Associate. LEED Certification is a term used for buildings (i.e. getting a building certified at a certain level: Certified, Silver, Gold, Platinum). When you are submitting a building for certification, you accumulate points, and depending on what level you would like to achieve, you will attempt to achieve differing amounts of points. Being a LEED AP provides the project with a single point. But more importantly, you can participate in the design and construction of the project because you are an expert in the process. Obtaining you accreditation means you have a full understanding of the requirements of LEED. To insure that LEED AP's have a current understanding, they are now required to maintain their credential through continuing education. Becoming a LEED AP will also allow you more job opportunities because many new positions suggest or require that potential candidates have this credential, meaning you can get a different, or even a better job. If you would like to obtain more information, you should go to Green Design Community at greendesigncommunity.com. That is an online community of LEED APs and of people wanting to become APs. They can provide you with varying perspectives on the topic.
