This workshop addresses LEED tools and unique aspects of the Existing Buildings: Operations & Maintenance rating system.

An Official USGBC LEED Faculty who is a LEED and facilitation expert will walk the class through the phases of a typical project, including key decisions that project teams must make and guidance on how to make them.
