Onsite Information for LEED Training »

LEED recognizes five key areas: sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials selection, and indoor environmental quality, which promote a holistic approach to sustainability. More and more private businesses and public entities are adopting sustainability initiatives as an integral part of their operational strategy in order to maximize production efficiency and minimize waste. Adopting sustainable efforts in your organization will help to:

  1. Reduce waste and pollution
  2. Increase efficiency
  3. Develop alternatives to treatment and disposal
  4. Provide sustainable use of resources
  5. Create a healthy work environment
  6. Promote regulatory integration
  7. Address compliance regulations

What are our students saying?

Read what our past Students have said about our Learning to LEED course:

  • Just wanted to let you know that SIX of the WELBRO LEED candidates who attended your TREEO session on 03/20/08 and 03/21/08, have taken the LEED exam, and all six of us passed the exam. No one failed!! Scores ranged from 173 to 191. Two additional WELBRO associates who attended will be taking the exam shortly. One additional WELBRO associate will be taking the TREEO session shortly.

    Your training session was certainly one of the main keys to our success rate. So, on behalf of our WELBRO team, THANKS SO MUCH to you and Dr. Kibert for putting on such a great seminar.

    We have recommended that your seminar be a standard requirement for future WELBRO waves of LEED candidates.

  • "Study and let your social life suffer for a little bit." The technique that I used was to continually read the information in your three ring binder. I was surprised at the lack of problems that had calculations or dollar amounts. The area that I scored the lowest was Coordinate Project Team and I am not sure how or where to study for this part. After answering 43 correct answers on your practice exam I am very pleased with today’s result. I will definitely recommend your course to others.
  • Great, explanatory lectures, excellent take home and testing materials
  • I attended the Learning to LEED class in Orlando. Thank you for presenting all of the information in a format that could be easily absorbed. I took the exam this morning and passed with a 178. I had originally intended to take the exam in a couple of weeks but did not want to waste the valuable experience from the class. Thanks again.
  • This was the most challenging information; overwhelming and intelligence straining self-improvement course that I have taken in many a year – and I liked the challenge.
  • Strategy for test taking was great and so was the sharing of personal test taking experiences.
  • Good introduction on what individuals need to study and prep for to pass the examination.
  • Good course organization.
  • Overall course was good - a lot of information in a short amount of time - especially for a non-architect non-engineer.
