GPRO For Schools with Green Building Alliance
Event Description

School facility and custodial staff members are unsung heroes in the quest for healthy and high-performing school buildings that contribute to thriving environments for students. GPRO training for green building operations & maintenance offers practical and affordable strategies to facility and custodial teams in preK-12 schools. This two-day course will help school facility teams identify ways to save energy, water, and money while improving indoor air quality. Content includes information that facility members of any building type will find useful, but this course will include customized information that will be especially relevant to preK-12 school teams.

This class includes content on both the Fundamentals of Building Green as well as Operations & Maintenance essentials. Topics include:

  • Performance Metrics
  • Building Envelope
  • Water Use
  • Heating, Cooling & Hot Water
  • Indoor Air Quality
  • Lighting
  • Waste Reduction 
  • Resiliency
  • Commissioning Existing Buildings 


The GPRO training was developed by the Urban Green Council and is offered in Western Pennsylvania by Green Building Alliance, whose staff has been teaching the class every year since 2016.
