The USGBC has revised the widely recognized Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design Building Rating System and released a new version- LEED 2009.  The Council has introduced new prerequisites, tightened the referenced standards, created new regional priority credits, re-assigned point values to many existing credits, and harmonized the points required for certification across the rating systems.  In addition, the LEED Accredited Professional training program has been revised into the three tiered training program for multiple industry professionals.  This session provides a concise executive summary overview of the many changes to help attendees adapt to these new requirements and understand the most important revisions and improvements.
