The Succeed With LEED Series offers a way to understand the LEED Rating system through the lens of a particular construction, design, operations, and sustainability topic. The series highlights prerequisites and credits available within a given topic. How to achieve them, document them, and what to look out for. While many topics will apply to all LEED rating systems, we mostly focus on LEED Residential for single-family, multifamily, midrise, and mixed-use buildings. In this Succeed with LEED session, we will focus on the challenges and opportunities for improving our existing housing stock and what needs to be done to achieve LEED certification. Whether you are doing an alternative green building certification program or just looking for tips on building more sustainable, you do not have to be focused on LEED to benefit from and join in this conversation!
