Upcoming USGBC MA Presinars

By USGBC MA

Do you need to maintain GBCI CE and/or LEED-NC credits to maintain accreditation? Do you just want to learn about new trends in sustainability and how to improve your designs? We offer a pretty simple way of doing this – you can attend one of our after work presinars in either Boston or Worcester.

Here's what's coming up in the near future:

April 12th: US Nippert Stadium Renovation Case Study
Sustainability Hub
912 Main St.
Worcester, MA, 01610

How can a building with nearly 60 percent glass on the exterior—one that is operated for only a few days per year and served by existing central plant systems—achieve LEED certification? The answer is: not easily.

April 19th: The Business Case for Sustainable Design
50 Milk St., 17th Floor, Hercules Room
Boston, MA, 02109

This lesson is intended to provide students with the foundational knowledge to understand and make the business argument for Sustainable Design and Corporate Social Responsibility Reporting. It covers the high-level effects of climate change on business, as well as decisions that individual organizations must consider.
