SUMMARY:WELL AP® Prep: Keeping People WELL During the COVID-19 Era | Green Building Training Program
DESCRIPTION: WELL AP® Prep: Keeping People WELL During the COVID-19 Era \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n8 Hour Training presented by Built Environment Plus \nMost people spend up to 90 percent of their time in buildings – while the health of the building is highly critical\, it is a component that was often overlooked. Now with the advent of COVID-19\, our perspective on this component has changed: building designers and operators must re-examine how we navigate offices\, restaurants\, stores\, schools\, and residential common areas. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has put out new guidelines for the health and safety of the indoor space. Fortunately\, the WELL Building Standard® provides the knowledge necessary to make the health and well-being of building residents an even greater priority. \nThe WELL standard is an evidence-base verified rating system focused on operational policies\, maintenance protocols\, and the health of the occupants. WELL is grounded in the premise that buildings play a leading role in supporting the health and well-being of the residents. \n \n\n\n\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				This course covers the financial\, societal\, and environmental benefits of WELL certification. This course will explain the seven concepts of the WELL Building standard\, strategies to achieve them\, the health impacts they address\, and summarize the certification process of the WELL Building Standard. \nThe overlap between the WELL Standard and COVID-19 mitigation strategies for buildings will also be discussed\, especially in regards to the WELL Health-Safety Rating. This rating system is an evidence-based\, third-party verified rating for all facility types\, focused on operational policies\, maintenance protocols\, emergency plans and stakeholder education to address a post-COVID-19 environment now and broader health and safety-related issues into the future. \nThe WELL AP® Exam Prep Class will have nine sections over the course of one day. Upon completion of the class\, students will be eligible to sit for the WELL AP exam. \nThe following core concepts will be covered: \n\nCleaning and Sanitation Procedures\nAir and Water Quality Management\nEmergency Preparedness Programs\nHealth Service Resources\nStakeholder Engagement and Communication\nHealth-Safety Rating and COVID-19 mitigation strategies for building design\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Meet the Instructor\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Steven BurkeDirector of Sustainability | Consigli Construction Co.\, Inc. \nSteven is the Director of Sustainability at Consigli Construction Co.\, Inc.\, a regional construction firm based in Massachusetts. \nSteven has guided the sustainability process on over twenty million square feet of projects across many different building types and sizes\, including but not limited to: k-12 schools\, higher education facilities\, mid-rise and high-rise residential\, commercial interiors\, retail interiors\, and commercial office buildings.  \nHe has been a member of the Urban Land Institute’s Health Leaders Network\, is a LEED and WELL Faculty member\, a Fitwel Ambassador\, and a Certified Passive House Consultant. \nHe has a Master of Science in Sustainability Management from Columbia University\, and he blends business and science to specialize in sustainability\, resiliency\, and health and wellness strategies for the built environment. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Green Building Training Program Information\n				This course is now funded through the Commonwealth Workforce Training Fund’s Small Business Direct Access Program (SBDAP). If you are a small\, Massachusetts-based business that employs 100 people or less\, you and your employees may be eligible to take this training session for free!
