USGBC's Education Provider Program Calls for Reviewers

The U.S. Green Building Council recently issued an ongoing call for members interested in joining the team that provides peer review of the courses and content that make up the Education Provider Program. Green building subject matter experts and educators are sought for this team.

Given the exponential growth in the green building market, there is a proportionate demand for top-quality education opportunities to support that growth. USGBC facilitates access to this education through Greenbuild365, a new online education portal, which includes a catalog of courses offered by USGBC and education providers. Professionals seeking to go beyond LEED and enrich their knowledge of green building theories, techniques, and business trends want to know the content is accurate, timely, and worth their time. Reviewers provide this important oversight.

"Education is the cornerstone of USGBC's mission of transforming the building marketplace, and the Education Provider Program accelerates that mission by making top-quality courses that have been rigorously tested and reviewed available to the public," said Peter Templeton, senior vice president of Research & Education, USGBC. "An expanded reviewer base will help us more rapidly increase the number of courses in our catalog and ensure the ongoing excellence of the program."
