Free Online Training: GPRO Fundamentals of Green Building Virtual Training + Exam, April 21
Event Description
This course provides essential strategies and work practices that make buildings more efficient. GBCI, AIA, and PDH credits are available!
The construction industry is moving quickly towards greener, high-performance buildings, creating increased demand across the country for sustainable building skills.
This course teaches the foundational concepts of sustainability – and provides an overview of the essential strategies and work practices that make buildings more efficient, healthy, and resilient. GPRO covers the green gap between standard trade skills and the new awareness required to successfully implement sustainable and energy-efficient building practices.
This training is ideal for anyone who needs a better understanding of high-performance buildings, including sales or administrative staff in real estate, construction, architecture, or engineering, workforce development providers, facilities and operations staff, and college students interested in entering the building or construction industry.
What Students Learn:
The GPRO training was an amazing experience! The class covers a wealth of information: What is Sustainability, Measuring Building Performance, Climate Change, and a history of the environmental movement. The instructors are well versed in the subject matter. A professional training manual is provided and it’s an excellent reference for all things related to green building, sustainability, conservation, and more! I attended the training at Metro headquarters in downtown Los Angeles.
They offer classes that are open to the public! After taking the GPRO training you have a better understanding of how green building can positively impact the environment, communities, and jobs.
