The Green Advantage Training Program offers real world, practical information with broader, big picture concepts to prepare students to accomplish four important goals:
Understand and enforce the core concepts and construction principles behind sustainable buildings leading to holistic view from the different trades of their work. This will foster leadership in the industry as younger tradesmen move into management positions.
Integrate green practices and strategies into construction processes which will lighten the impact on the environment, save energy and improve the health conditions of construction workers and building occupants
Become knowledgeable enough about the LEED rating system as it applies to construction to be an active partner with design professionals to achieve a LEED rated building.
