Workshop Details:
The USGBC Northern California Chapter, in partnership with GreenStep
Education, is offering a full-day LEED NCv2.2 Exam Preparation Workshop
designed to prepare you pass the test with confidence - the first time.
The workshop will focus on key information necessary to pass the LEED exam, including:
* Credit intents, requirements & submittals
* Project team coordination
* LEED implementation & LEED Online
* Technical credit analysis Test taking tips and strategies
In addition to delivering the material in a clear and concise
format, this workshop presents the types of questions that are asked on
the exam so you know what and how to study. We review example scenarios
from real world projects to help you better understand and remember the
material while giving you an opportunity to put the concepts to
practice.
One of the best ways to prepare for any test is to work through
sample questions. Our workshops conclude with a 25-question in-class
practice exam and a full 80-question take-home exam that accurately
reflect the types of questions you'll see on the test.
Included as part of the training, participants receive a workbook
that summarizes the material and allows you to follow the outline of
the course. In addition, participants will receive access to a live
LEED project, giving you the opportunity to gain valuable experience
navigating LEED Online, downloading templates, assigning credits and
researching Credit Interpretation Requests (CIRs).
There are no required materials for this course. It is recommended
that at a minimum you read through the requirements for each
credit/prereq in the Rating System or Reference Guide to gain a basic
level of familiarity before the class, and that you obtain a copy of
the LEED Reference Guide (for the desired rating system) to study from
- it contains almost all the information you need to know.
You can purchase the Reference Guides at the USGBC Store
You can also download the outline of the Rating System for free from
USGBC National, which contains much of the important information
covered in the Reference Guide.

Proven Results:
"Without reservation, I recommend Alex's ability to provide LEED
exam preparation. Beginning with a minimal level of knowledge, I
successfully passed the exam two weeks after the course."
Lester G. Meu, Architect, CSI, CCS, CCCA, AIA, NCARB, LEED AP
"GreenStep is the sole reason I passed the LEED Exam. Without
Alex's tutelage, I would not have been able to pass this difficult
test. He was instrumental in helping me understand the fundamentals and
achieve proficiency with the LEED Rating System."
Garrett Johnson, Assistant Project Manager, Plant Construction
"Alex has a great energy which comes across in his presentations
and a solid knowledge of LEED and sustainable building design. You will
have fun and learn at the same time."
