LEED Green Associate (GA) Exam Prep

Great question! In 2014, USGBC chose Everblue from its roster of Education Partners to create the first LEED v4 Exam Prep package (to align with the launch of the new LEED v4 rating system and credentialing exams). The result is the product you see on the USGBC website. To participate in that training, you buy the course directly from USGBC and access the course on the USGBC platform. At the time that this product was created – again, in 2014 – the USGBC platform was unable to host secondary materials, such as interactive practice questions and PDFs, in addition to the LEED Exam Prep presentation.

So the two main differences between our LEED Green Associate Exam Prep webinar (on our website) and the one featured on the USGBC website is:

(1) the USGBC product is outdated. The product advertised here on the Everblue website was just updated in May 2018.

(2) the USGBC product does not include any study materials or practice questions with the presentation. The product advertised here on the Everblue website DOES INCLUDE 500+ recently updated practice questions and LEED credit memorization sheets.

Thanks again for your question. If you have any other questions about our course features, please give us a call at 877-741-9382.

Yes, absolutely! We offer our live webinars in the Eastern Standard Time (EST) zone. You'll see that we've scheduled multiple times for the live webinars - morning, noon, and night - so you should be able to find a session that works for you!

Hello and thank you for your question.

The LEED exams are not open book and is administered by a third party that the GBCI maintains a relationship with called Prometric Testing Centers.

Hello and thank you for your question.

Your experience working on a LEED project will be very helpful. However, I would also suggest that you participate in a concentrated LEED Exam Prep activity to make sure that you are knowledgeable about the LEED Credit requirements and the idiosyncrasies therein.

Hello and thank you for your question.

It sounds like you are a great candidate for the LEED Green Associate exam! You should definitely enroll in a LEED Green Associate Exam Prep course to make sure that you understand all of the LEED Credit requirements & intents. Upon passing the LEED GA exam, and since it sounds like you have LEED Project Experience, you would then go about qualifying for the LEED AP with Specialty Exam.

Hello and thank you for your interest in Everblue training.

Once you have completed our training, you will receive your certificate of completion needed to register for your exam. Exams are taken at Prometric testing facilities, so when you take your test depends on what availability the testing center will have for your appointment. Typically, we recommend students study for 2-3 weeks before taking there exam, therefore if you register in advance you should find a suitable time and date 2-3 weeks before your test date.

Hello and thank you for your question.

Unfortunately this work experience will not be sufficient for understanding the concepts that will be on your LEED Green Associate exam. Your best course of action is to participate in a LEED Exam Prep course, such as the one provided by Everblue, to learn the LEED credits and requirements. You will have the most chance of success by intentionally preparing for the exam.
