Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) is one of the most popular green building certification programs
used worldwide. Developed by the non-profit U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) it includes a set of rating systems for
the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of green buildings, homes, and neighborhoods[8] that aims to help
building owners and operators be environmentally responsible and use resources efficiently. To receive LEED
certification, building projects satisfy prerequisites and earn points to achieve different levels of certification.
The LEED Professional Exams are administered by the Green Building Certification Institute (GBCI) for professionals
seeking to earn credentials and certificates. The exams test knowledge based on the U.S. Green Building Council’s
Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Rating Systems.
For professionals who want to demonstrate green building expertise in non-technical fields of practice, GBCI has created
the LEED Green Associate credential, which denotes basic knowledge of green design, construction, and operations.
The LEED Green Associate exam consists of 100 randomly delivered questions which must be completed in 2 hours. The
content of the exam focuses on the LEED project process (including integrated design), core sustainability concepts,
green building terminology, and various aspects of the LEED rating systems.
The fees associated with the LEED Green Associate are a $50 application fee, a $200 exam fee (per exam appointment) for
USGBC national members and full-time students or $250 exam fee (per exam appointment) for all others, and a $85 biennial
CMP renewal fee.
