Leonardo Academy’s training approach cultivates a dynamic interaction with participants and provides opportunities for all four key modes of learning: auditory, visual, written, and via experience through open discussion and in response to the review questions. Leonardo Academy also provides training participants with post training online: - Self quizzing for increasing and testing knowledge - Online flash cards - Online model exam questions The GBCI’s new LEED® Green Associate credential represents that individuals have a basic knowledge of green building principles and practices and LEED.LEED® GA is for individuals that support green buildings in their regular professional work but do not need the detailed knowledge of particular LEED rating systems that would be documented by a rating system specific credential. Examples could include those who sell products that can contribute to LEED certification of buildings or those who sell or deliver services like green cleaning who want to have a general overall understanding of sustainable buildings and LEED. The LEED® GA credential is also a prerequisite to pursue the next tier of LEED® accreditation, LEED® Professional with Specialty, which is designed for professionals that directly apply LEED® and green building in their practice. **[**Register now!**](https://events.constantcontact.com/register/eventReg?oeidk=a07e2zloszw88e05b79)** **Presenter:** ***Kara Edmonson, LEED AP O+M*** Kara Edmonson joined Leonardo Academy in 2007, bringing six years of previous experience with natural areas restoration and urban environmental issues.
